Job Description Hope Mission Statement The mission of Hope the Mission is to prevent, reduce and eliminate poverty, hunger, and homelessness by offering immediate assistance and long-term solutions. Position Purpose and Summary Every HTM interim housing site has people sleeping in it, staff working in it, contracts attached to it, and a community surrounding it. The Program Manager is accountable for all of it. Reporting to the Director of Interim Housing or Senior Director of Programs, the Program Manager is the primary site-level leader responsible for day-to-day operations, staff supervision, participant safety, and contract compliance at assigned interim housing locations. This role sets the tone for how services are delivered, how staff perform, and how the site functions — not just during business hours, but across every shift, in every interaction, and under every funder's lens. When things go wrong, the Program Manager responds. When documentation falls short, the Program Manager corrects it. When a participant's path to permanent housing stalls, the Program Manager ensures the team has what it needs to move it forward. The scope of this role is genuinely broad. It spans people management, compliance monitoring, incident response, cross-departmental coordination, community representation, and participant-centered service oversight — all within environments that operate around the clock and serve individuals navigating significant instability. That breadth is not incidental. Interim housing is not a simple program to run, and the Program Manager is the person the organization trusts to run it well. The quality of leadership at this level determines whether HTM's sites are places where people feel safe, supported, and moving toward something — or just places where people stay. Primary Duties and Responsibilities * Ensure program operations are compliant with all applicable funder requirements, Scope of Required Services (SRS), agency policies, and regulatory standards, while monitoring performance metrics, data integrity, and quality assurance processes to achieve contract outcomes. * Provide direct leadership and supervision to program staff, including hiring support, training, coaching, performance management, and accountability, to ensure consistent, high-quality, trauma-informed service delivery and operational coverage. * Oversee and continuously improve participant-centered service delivery using Housing First, Harm Reduction, and Trauma-Informed Care principles, while coordinating with internal departments, community partners, CES stakeholders, and public agencies to support participant outcomes and system alignment.
