Salary: 

$100,600–$150,900 annually, DOQ. 

Description:

The Housing Authority of the County of Santa Clara (HACSC) was established in 1967 by the Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors, to operate as an independent local government agency to administer the federal rental assistance programs authorized by the United States Housing Act. Since 1976, HACSC has operated the federal rental assistance programs of the County of Santa Clara and the City of San José as one program. In 2008, Congress designated HACSC a Moving to Work demonstration agency. Since then, HACSC has achieved the notoriety of being the first housing authority in the nation to earn a “Strong Performer” ranking by Standard & Poor’s, the highest designation given to public agencies.

There are two positions for Assistant Director, both reporting to the Director of Housing and both will serve as a member of the senior management team. The Assistant Directors will have day-to-day responsibility of management and oversight of the operations of a division within the Housing Department of the Housing Authority. One position will oversee the Section 8 Occupancy Division, including the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program and other programs and activities. The other Assistant Director will oversee the Affordable Housing & Section 8 Leasing Division. Both positions will play a key operational role and will need strong leadership and strategic organizational and planning skills to implement a consolidation of housing programs and real estate operations. 

Qualifications:

The desired experience for both positions would include a minimum of seven years of increasingly responsible management experience in affordable housing programs. A BA degree in Social or Behavioral Science, Public or Business Administration, or related field is required. A Master’s degree is preferred for both positions.
