Homeless Services Manager

The City of Sunnyvale is seeking a Homeless Services Manager to join the Housing Division of the Community Development Department. The Housing Division is a passionate and hardworking group of professionals dedicated to addressing the housing and human service needs of the community. We work collaboratively to achieve our housing goals and foster an innovative and team focused work environment. The Homeless Services Manager will oversee housing staff who also focus on human service programs within the division.

Under general direction of the Housing Officer, the Homeless Services Manager will oversee coordination and implementation of new homeless service programs such as Safe RV Parking, Universal Basic Income, and new transitional housing developments, as well as manage existing funding partnerships which support the unhoused. As the City Council has recently established supporting the unhoused as a Council Policy Priority, the Homeless Services Manager will play a critical role in identifying service needs and creative problem solving towards meeting these needs and providing policy direction. The selected candidate will foster and maintain strategic partnerships with public and private entities to identify opportunities and deliver measurable results.  The Homeless Services Manager will coordinate high level citywide outreach and engagement strategies, attend public hearings as needed, and serve as staff liaison between the City and partners countywide.
