Leader in consulting, training, compliance and software solutions for public and affordable housing agencies.
The Housing Specialist III performs a wide range of activities related to determining and documenting applicant and participant eligibility, income, rent, and contractual relationships with owners to support Housing Choice Voucher operations. The role conducts weekly interviews with program participants, maintains full accountability for an assigned caseload, and ensures accurate files, timely resolution of call‑center cases, and responsive communication with participants and landlords. Caseloads may be up to 1½ times that of a Housing Specialist I and include increased case‑management responsibilities. Performance must meet or exceed HS‑III standards, and additional duties may be assigned to support the team.
A four‑year degree in Public Administration, Social Science, or a related field is preferred, with at least two years of progressive public‑agency experience; alternatively, a two‑year degree plus four years of experience satisfies the requirement. Candidates must be able to apply program regulations, communicate effectively in oral and written form, conduct participant interviews, and demonstrate strong computer, organizational, and time‑management skills.
