Wake County seeks a results-driven, innovative problem-solver with the skills and experience to lead its Housing Affordability and Community Revitalization Department. Under the guidance of the Deputy County Manager, the Director of Housing Affordability & Community Revitalization provides executive leadership in addressing Wake County’s current and growing housing affordability crisis, developing high-quality business strategies and plans aligned with short- and long-term Board of Commissioners’ goals and objectives.
Wake County’s Department of Housing Affordability & Community Revitalization is divided into two areas: Programs and Operations. Each area is led by a Deputy Housing Director. These two areas comprise five distinct divisions, each offering a wide range of services and support to help Wake County residents gain and maintain safe, affordable housing. With an annual budget of approximately $34.6 million and 120 employees, the department exists to ensure that quality affordable housing is available for all Wake County residents, even as population and economic growth increase the need for affordable housing development and preservation. Affordable housing is critical to preserving the County’s economic competitiveness by offering options for residents at all income levels, supporting housing stability and economic opportunity for residents, and furthering Wake County’s commitment to healthy and inclusive growth. Additionally, the department is responsible for helping to connect veterans and their families to the benefits they earned through military service.
Ten (10) years or more of progressively responsible and innovative experience administering local, state, or federal housing initiatives while overseeing compliance with complex rules and regulations is ideal.
Candidates should have a detailed understanding of national best practices in housing strategies and an in-depth knowledge of local, state, and federal housing initiatives, funding opportunities, and regulatory requirements. County leaders are looking for a true team leader — someone comfortable being the face of the department within the community who balances public relations with team leadership, excelling in both arenas. The selected candidate should understand how to pair political demands with expert guidance and empower a team of diverse, high-performing subject matter experts to accomplish assigned strategic initiatives. The right fit for this position is forward-thinking, creative, and highly collaborative, with exceptional communication skills, unwavering integrity, and high emotional intelligence. They are focused on activity, not just theory, and they have a proven track record of success in the field thanks to their ability to build community partnerships and sustain and grow them to ensure regional synergy and interagency victories. Follow-through is critical to this department’s work, and the new director must be able to analyze, synthesize, and evaluate a variety of data for use in program development and analysis. Critical problem-solving and analytical thinking skills are a must. The ideal candidate respects and communicates well with individuals at all levels of the organization and a wide variety of stakeholders, is a great listener, and is able to translate complex issues into easily understandable concepts for a diverse audience. They also understand how to build consensus, clearly articulate their expectations, and hold themselves and others accountable to County goals and department objectives to ensure success.
