Reporting to the Senior Staff Attorney, the Homeownership Project Administrator plays a critical role in VIP’s tangled title project. Clients experiencing a tangled title have a legal claim to their home (such as through inheritance) but do not have their name on the deed, preventing them from accessing benefits and services available to homeowners.
The Administrator will provide logistical and administrative support to facilitate volunteers’ resolutions of cases and coordinate with VIP staff to monitor referred VIP cases and propel them toward resolution. The Administrator will also manage the Tangled Title Fund, a City-funded program of well over $200,000 that pays for costs associated with resolving clients’ title issues. Additional duties include coordinating regular dialogue with key legal services agencies that serve tangled title clients. To perform all aspects of this role, the Administrator will develop a basic working knowledge of the key legal issues involved, with attorney support.
The position is full-time (38-40 hours/week) and nonexempt, with a salary range of $44,000 to $49,000 and an outstanding team atmosphere. VIP’s generous benefits include medical and dental insurance (with employee medical premium fully paid by VIP); a 403(b) plan with employer contributions; short-and long-term disability and life insurance; flexible spending accounts for health and dependent care; industry-leading paid time off, including substantial vacation and sick time, 12+ paid holidays, and paid parental leave; an individual budget for professional development; and alternative work arrangements, including generous telework hours and scheduling flexibility. This position is part of a bargaining unit of employees represented by UAW. This position is funded through December 2026 and continued employment is contingent on receipt of funding. VIP is actively seeking to secure further funding.
