SCOPE:
The Choice Neighborhoods Administrator provides strategic leadership and executive-level oversight for the Oklahoma City Housing Authority's (OCHA) Choice Neighborhoods Initiative (CNI) Implementation Grant and Transformation Plan. The Administrator is responsible for leading the successful implementation of OCHA's comprehensive neighborhood transformation strategy focused on the replacement and transformation of Will Rogers Courts and the revitalization of the surrounding Will Rogers/Stockyards neighborhood and any future CNI awards.
The Administrator serves as OCHA's primary internal leader for Choice Neighborhoods implementation and is responsible for coordinating the Housing, People, and Neighborhood components of the Transformation Plan. The position works across OCHA departments and with the City of Oklahoma City, residents, developers, nonprofit organizations, educational and healthcare institutions, businesses, philanthropic organizations, federal and state agencies, and other community partners to ensure that the commitments established through the CNI grant are implemented effectively and produce measurable outcomes.
The Administrator serves as a strategic advisor to the Executive Director and executive leadership, providing regular updates regarding implementation progress, funding, HUD compliance, project risks, resident outcomes, neighborhood investments, and decisions requiring executive action.
ACCOUNTABILITY:
Directly responsible to the Executive Director.

  • Advance Neighborhood Investment and Partnerships: Lead coordination of neighborhood transformation activities within the CNI target neighborhood and with the City of Oklahoma City and other public, private, nonprofit, philanthropic, and community partners. Support implementation of neighborhood investments, infrastructure, transportation, public spaces, economic development, public safety, community facilities, and connections to surrounding assets, while identifying opportunities to leverage additional public and private investment.

  • Advance Resident Outcomes and Engagement: Ensure implementation of the CNI People Strategy remains resident-centered and outcome-driven. Coordinate with Resident Services and community partners to advance employment, education, health, youth development, economic mobility, housing stability, and other resident outcomes. Lead resident and community engagement efforts, ensure meaningful resident participation in implementation decisions, and support communication regarding redevelopment, relocation, services, and neighborhood improvements.

  • Manage CNI Grant Compliance and Reporting: Serve as OCHA's primary coordinator for HUD CNI requirements and ensure compliance with applicable grant, federal, environmental, relocation, procurement, civil rights, and other requirements. Coordinate HUD reports, budgets, work plans, amendments, performance documentation, and grant submissions; monitor expenditures and drawdowns; maintain grant records; and coordinate corrective actions, audits, monitoring, and grant closeout activities.

  • Monitor Performance, Accountability, and Risk: Establish and maintain an integrated CNI implementation dashboard and master schedule to track milestones, budgets, deliverables, performance measures, risks, dependencies, and responsible parties. Lead regular implementation meetings, establish early-warning and accountability processes, analyze performance data, and recommend adjustments to ensure projects remain on schedule, within budget, and aligned with the Transformation Plan.

  • Provide Executive Leadership, Communications, and Stakeholder Coordination: Serve as a primary liaison to HUD, the OCHA Board of Commissioners, Executive Leadership, the City, developers, nonprofit and community organizations, and other CNI partners. Advise the Executive Director on implementation progress, challenges, opportunities, risks, and strategic priorities; provide regular updates to the Board and stakeholders; coordinate partner commitments and agreements; and oversee responses to governmental, resident, community, media, and other stakeholder inquiries.

  • The Administrator may supervise CNI program, project management, compliance, resident engagement, communications, and administrative staff.

  • The position will also provide matrixed leadership across OCHA departments, including Development, Finance, Asset Management, Capital Improvements, Resident Services, Housing Operations, Housing Choice Voucher, Procurement, Legal, and Communications.
