Job Description Summary Advisors is a mission-based consultancy within Enterprise focused on delivering capacity building and technical assistance in partnership with Federal agencies, units of local government, public housing authorities, nonprofit organizations, philanthropy, and others. We work with partners to improve the capacity, outcomes and impacts of community development and housing programs and organizations nationwide so that all people have a place to live, grow and thrive. We seek to advance racial equity and dismantle the enduring legacy of systemic racism in housing both through and within the work we do. We are seeking a dynamic Program Director to join our Equitable Resilience & Revitalization (ERR) team of Enterprise Advisors. For a variety of reasons-from racist policies like redlining to macroeconomic shifts leading to the loss of major industries and employers-there are cities and neighborhoods across the country that have suffered from disinvestment, fiscal distress, population and job loss, vacant and deteriorated residential and commercial properties, high poverty and unemployment rates, and increased risk and vulnerability to climate hazards and environmental stressors. At the same time, the local governments and cross-sector and community partners in these cities and neighborhoods have strengths to tap and potential to unlock-and they have been underestimated. The ERR team helps local governments and their partners tap their strengths and unlock their potential to design, fund, and implement strategies to advance equitable resilience, revitalization and inclusive prosperity. Good fiscal health, strong financial performance, and effective financial management practices are foundational components for local governments and nonprofits to successfully obtain funding, implement strategies, and accomplish goals to advance equitable resilience, revitalization and inclusive prosperity. At the same time, communities experiencing economic distress typically lack adequate financial resources, with local governments and nonprofits in these communities facing particularly steep challenges to building a strong fiscal foundation. The Program Director will be an integral member of the ERR team, involved in all aspects of the work, and will also serve as the team's expert on local governments and nonprofits fiscal health and financial management. They will also have the opportunity to work on projects led by other Enterprise Advisors teams and other parts of Enterprise where there is a need and an alignment with their interests and expertise. The Program Director will report to the Director for Equitable Resilience and Revitalization. This position may be based in any of the following locations: Washington, DC; Boston, MA; Atlanta, GA; Cleveland, OH; New Orleans, LA; Chicago, IL; Detroit, MI. Candida
