WHO WE ARE
Oregon Housing and Community Services (OHCS) is Oregon’s housing finance agency. We work across the housing continuum, from preventing and addressing homelessness to building the dream of homeownership, to providing financial and program support to create and preserve opportunities for quality, affordable housing for Oregonians of lower and moderate income. Our vision is that all Oregonians have the opportunity to pursue prosperity and to live free from poverty.
Across Oregon, housing has emerged as a paramount concern. The lack of available housing, high rents and home prices are driving rapid increases in gentrification, housing instability and homelessness. The data is clear: too many Oregonians are without a safe, stable, and affordable place to call home. The crises emerging in 2020 have exacerbated these needs – from the impact of the COVID pandemic, to the recovery from Oregon wildfires and the growing awareness of historic and current racial inequities – OHCS’ programs and services are needed now more than ever.
The Statewide Housing Plan is a bold new agenda that articulates how Oregon Housing and Community Services will pave the way for more Oregonians to have access to stable housing opportunities necessary for self-sufficiency and to address past policies and programs that have created – and perpetuate - racial inequities in housing. It lays the foundation for OHCS to be a data- and research-driven organization and proposes a new way of collaborating and focusing resources and energy to address the most pressing housing issues facing Oregon today. Our plan lays out ambitious goals to increase access to housing, including goals and strategies to prevent and address homelessness.
WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR
The OHCS Director of Public Affairs has the opportunity to lead a growing, nationally respected and highly in-demand state agency to make a positive impact on Oregonians as our state rebuilds from multiple crises: the COVID-19 pandemic; the tragedy of racism and violence impacting our communities; and the impact of the 2020 Oregon wildfires.
The next Director of Public Affairs will build trusted and collaborative relationships with an array of partners. The ideal candidate will demonstrate a track record of success collaborating with a diverse array of staff, stakeholders, elected officials and community members to achieve common goals.
As an executive manager, the next Director of Public Affairs will demonstrate experienced leadership effectively coordinating the work of a team of staff and/or volunteers in a community-based organization, advocacy campaign, governmental affairs position, public relations, elected office, or government agency, and leading people with an emphasis on professional development, teamwork and accountability.
The Public Affairs Director will be an outstanding communicator, with a talent for written and verbal communication. The ideal candidate will be experienced and comfortable addressing a fast-paced workload related to communications, public relations, media inquiries, and policy opportunities coming to the agency from the executive or legislative branch.
As a member of the OHCS Executive Team, the Public Affairs Director will model leadership to advance OHCS’ efforts to embed Equity and Racial Justice in program and policy opportunities and will work to build an inclusive culture within the agency.
This executive will have a keen ability to proactively identify opportunities and challenges for the Department and to elevate these to the agency Executive Director and other agency leaders.
The ideal candidate will bring expertise and experience from the housing and community services arena or will bring expertise and experience from another sector to this role, that can help OHCS expand its relationships and impact.
Requested Skills
Ability to work with the agency director to lead communications and public relations efforts to advance the goals of OHCS and the Statewide Housing Plan.
Ability and experience leading conversations among stakeholders, with elected leaders, and amongst staff at all levels of an organization. Must demonstrate experience engaging with elected or public officials to discuss policy options and develop opportunities.

WHO WE ARE
Oregon Housing and Community Services (OHCS) is Oregon’s housing finance agency. We work across the housing continuum, from preventing and addressing homelessness to building the dream of homeownership, to providing financial and program support to create and preserve opportunities for quality, affordable housing for Oregonians of lower and moderate income. Our vision is that all Oregonians have the opportunity to pursue prosperity and to live free from poverty.
Across Oregon, housing has emerged as a paramount concern. The lack of available housing, high rents and home prices are driving rapid increases in gentrification, housing instability and homelessness. The data is clear: too many Oregonians are without a safe, stable, and affordable place to call home. The crises emerging in 2020 have exacerbated these needs – from the impact of the COVID pandemic, to the recovery from Oregon wildfires and the growing awareness of historic and current racial inequities – OHCS’ programs and services are needed now more than ever.
The Statewide Housing Plan is a bold new agenda that articulates how Oregon Housing and Community Services will pave the way for more Oregonians to have access to stable housing opportunities necessary for self-sufficiency and to address past policies and programs that have created – and perpetuate - racial inequities in housing. It lays the foundation for OHCS to be a data- and research-driven organization and proposes a new way of collaborating and focusing resources and energy to address the most pressing housing issues facing Oregon today. Our plan lays out ambitious goals to increase access to housing, including goals and strategies to prevent and address homelessness.
WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR
The OHCS Director of Public Affairs has the opportunity to lead a growing, nationally respected and highly in-demand state agency to make a positive impact on Oregonians as our state rebuilds from multiple crises: the COVID-19 pandemic; the tragedy of racism and violence impacting our communities; and the impact of the 2020 Oregon wildfires.
The next Director of Public Affairs will build trusted and collaborative relationships with an array of partners. The ideal candidate will demonstrate a track record of success collaborating with a diverse array of staff, stakeholders, elected officials and community members to achieve common goals.
As an executive manager, the next Director of Public Affairs will demonstrate experienced leadership effectively coordinating the work of a team of staff and/or volunteers in a community-based organization, advocacy campaign, governmental affairs position, public relations, elected office, or government agency, and leading people with an emphasis on professional development, teamwork and accountability.
The Public Affairs Director will be an outstanding communicator, with a talent for written and verbal communication. The ideal candidate will be experienced and comfortable addressing a fast-paced workload related to communications, public relations, media inquiries, and policy opportunities coming to the agency from the executive or legislative branch.
As a member of the OHCS Executive Team, the Public Affairs Director will model leadership to advance OHCS’ efforts to embed Equity and Racial Justice in program and policy opportunities and will work to build an inclusive culture within the agency.
This executive will have a keen ability to proactively identify opportunities and challenges for the Department and to elevate these to the agency Executive Director and other agency leaders.
The ideal candidate will bring expertise and experience from the housing and community services arena or will bring expertise and experience from another sector to this role, that can help OHCS expand its relationships and impact.
Requested Skills
Ability to work with the agency director to lead communications and public relations efforts to advance the goals of OHCS and the Statewide Housing Plan.
Ability and experience leading conversations among stakeholders, with elected leaders, and amongst staff at all levels of an organization. Must demonstrate experience engaging with elected or public officials to discuss policy options and develop opportunities.
