-Work directly with property owners and managers to highlight compliance issues and address/correct instances of noncompliance with TC and/or HOME rules.
-Master the federal rules and HPD policies governing both the TC and HOME programs, ensuring that TCHM's work is completed accurately and timely, ensuring policies and procedures are followed, resolving conflicts between programs, communicating with and resolving issues with building owners and business partners.
-Oversee the Access data system that is used for tracking and reporting on compliance issues, as well as for work management and planning.

Preferred skills

-Demonstrated ability to effectively manage a team working on complex issues.
-Project and interpersonal management skills, including planning, communication, prioritization, and delegation.
-Knowledge of affordable housing and of TC and HOME rules and regulations.
-Experience interpreting regulations and legal documents.
