DEPARTMENT BACKGROUND
The Housing and Revitalization Department (HRD) finances, underwrites, and administers housing and public-serving facility investments that enhance the quality of life for the citizens of Detroit. Through HRD and the City’s partners in housing, including the Detroit Housing Commission, the City of Detroit is committed to ensuring that every Detroiter has access to safe, decent, and affordable housing. HRD makes strategic investments in the City’s existing affordable housing stock and new development to ensure the long-term population and physical growth of Detroit. HRD primarily, though not exclusively, makes these investments utilizing U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development funding.

It facilitates the production of housing by managing commercial land sales, guiding housing policy often through the creation of strategy, and working with a range of partners to address financing and other development industry needs. The Deputy Director will be responsible for ensuring that HRD’s investments and operations are high functioning and align with the Rise Higher platform of Mayor Mary Sheffield.

OVERVIEW
The Housing and Revitalization Department (HRD) seeks a Deputy Director to lead the department in pursuit of its mission to soundly and transparently invest funds to ensure that housing and neighborhoods are high quality, affordable, and accessible to and for all Detroiters. The HRD Deputy Director reports to the Director of HRD. In collaboration with HRD senior staff, the Director and Deputy Director are responsible for developing and achieving the programmatic and operational goals of the department and ensuring alignment with the priorities of the Mayor Sheffield Administration. The Deputy Director is appointed by the HRD Director.
