    Job description

    Certified Housing Specialist
    Do you want to use your certifications and knowledge of HUD and housing to make a difference for people living with mental illness? Join Thresholds, a mission-driven housing first organization as a Certified Housing Specialist!
    As a Certified Housing Specialist, you will manage a portfolio of Thresholds residential buildings.

Ultimately, your work will contribute to improved outcomes for Thresholds clients in their recovery process, health, and overall wellbeing.
    The culture at Thresholds is collaborative and supportive, providing you with the tools and resources you need to excel in your role. You will collaborate closely with Thresholds' Facilities department to prepare and maintain the units. Our goal is to help clients succeed in their housing, so you will also partner with clinical teams to lead eviction prevention discussions.

    • Strong knowledge of regulations and confidentiality
    • A valid driver's license, current insurance, and daily access to a personal vehicle
    • Willingness to travel throughout Chicagoland
    • To be at least 21 years old

    Education & Experience:
    • High school diploma or GED certificate required / Bachelor's degree preferred
    • Assisted Housing Manager (AHM), Certified Occupancy Specialist (COS), or Tax Credit Specialist (TCS) required
    • Minimum of 3 years of residential property management or administration of federal or government subsidies
    • Experience working with individuals with mental illness or substance use disorders preferred

    What sets Thresholds apart:
    • Competitive pay - Base Rate: $50,000 - $55,000 annually
    • Generous PTO
    • Vision insurance,
    • 403(b) retirement plan with 3% employer match
    • Robust employee assistance program (EAP)
    • Mileage reimbursement
    • Cell phone reimbursement (up to $50/month)
    • Public service loan forgiveness
