The Housing Partnership Network is a national membership organization with a deep commitment to new business development and innovation. With over 30 years of developing new social enterprises that help address gaps in the affordable housing sector for scaled impact, our innovation work is central to who we are.

The VP will be a mission-driven leader who will utilize their expertise across housing, innovation, public policy, and racial and economic equity to scale the impact of HPN and its members through collective social enterprise. The VP will be nimble, flexible, and adaptable, be a creative non-linear thinker who is comfortable with ambiguity and pursuing multiple paths and be able to quickly figure out new and complicated business areas.
