Senior Case Manager
Beverly Bootstraps - Beverly, MA
Organizational Overview
Founded in 1992 as a small food pantry in a church basement, Beverly Bootstraps has evolved
into a $6.5 million organization with a 46-member workforce, serving more than 7,000 individuals
annually. Our work is anchored in food assistance and supported by wraparound services that
address the root causes of food insecurity, enabling clients to strengthen their foundations for
long-term success. Our popular Thrift Shop plays a dual role, generating revenue and providing
clothing and household goods to clients in need. Together, these integrated supports reflect the
organization’s belief that lasting change begins with self-sufficiency and is sustained through
strong leadership and a shared commitment to dignity and community.
True to our belief that lasting change begins with self-sufficiency, Beverly Bootstraps has built a
strong reputation for meeting urgent needs while helping individuals and families toward self-
sufficiency. The organization pairs immediate food assistance with personalized support that
empowers clients to achieve greater stability and independence. Through case management,
adult education programs, youth and family services, and tax preparation services, clients gain
tools to overcome barriers and work toward sustained independence. While food assistance
remains central to its mission, Beverly Bootstraps embraces a holistic approach that addresses
the root causes of food insecurity.
The Opportunity
Beverly Bootstraps seeks a Senior Case Manager to provide client-centered case management
to individuals and families experiencing housing instability, food insecurity, or other barriers to
self-sufficiency. The role combines assessment, goal planning, resource navigation, advocacy,
and documentation to support clients in achieving stable housing, improved health, and
increased economic stability.
The case management team is working to deepen the way we serve clients, moving from one-off
support and resources to more in-depth, longer-term coaching; we are looking for someone who
will help us build the structure of this new approach and grow with the program and organization.
Reporting directly to the Case Management Supervisor, the Senior Case Manager will work
closely with the case management team and colleagues on the food assistance, education, and
thrift teams. The ideal candidate is an entrepreneurial, solutions-oriented professional who can
balance direct client services and support with strategic thinking and thought partnership with
department leaders.
The Senior Case Manager will join the organization at an exciting and critical moment, when
both the need for our services and support from the community are at all-time highs.
Responsibilities

risks, and eligibility for services.

monitoring, crisis intervention, plan adjustments, and coaching.

resources, including housing, benefits, employment, healthcare, mental health, and
substance use services.

remove barriers and secure services.

service plans, outcomes, and required reporting in agency systems.
Facilitate clients' access to emergency support, including rental assistance, food
resources, transportation, and other basic needs.
Participate in multidisciplinary team meetings and case conferences to ensure
coordinated care and information sharing.
Support community outreach and education efforts to increase awareness of available
services and to engage hard-to-reach populations.
Collect, track, and report program data to support performance measurement, funding
requirements, and continuous quality improvement.
Uphold strict confidentiality standards and professional ethics in all client interactions
and recordkeeping.
Please note: This is a non-clinical case management position. The role focuses on client
coaching, collaborative goal setting, resource navigation, advocacy, and connecting individuals
with community services to support stability and self-sufficiency. This position does not provide
clinical counseling, therapy, casework requiring licensure, or mental health treatment.
