The Organization
Founded over a century ago, Volunteers of America – Greater New York (VOA-GNY) stands as one of the region’s most enduring and impactful anti-poverty and housing organizations. While part of the broader national VOA federation, VOA-GNY operates independently with its own board, strategic mandate, and leadership structure. It has pioneered many key social service models, including being among the first organizations in the U.S. to pilot supportive housing. Today, VOA-GNY ranks as the fifth-largest provider of supportive housing in New York City, underscoring its vital role in one of the country’s most challenging urban housing landscapes.
The Opportunity
Reporting to the President and CEO and serving on the VOA-GNY leadership team, the Senior Vice President of Real Estate and Facilities provides visionary leadership over the organization’s real estate development, facilities management, and asset management functions in furtherance of VOA-GNY’s goal to significantly reduce homelessness and housing instability in the Greater New York area. The Senior Vice President will work collaboratively with internal leaders and industry partners to expand VOA-GNY’s existing pipeline of housing and shelter development projects while ensuring all projects are completed at a high quality and on schedule. The Senior Vice President will also ensure all VOA-GNY facilities are well-maintained to a high degree of excellence and that the organization is complying with all applicable housing laws and regulations, financing terms, and rental subsidy requirements.
