Chief Operating Officer

Homebase is a national nonprofit dedicated to the social problem of homelessness. Our mission is to end homelessness, prevent its recurrence, and decrease its effect on communities. We work at the local, state, and national levels to support our partners in designing systems and implementing responses to homelessness while fostering collaboration and collective impact in addressing its political and economic causes.

Over the past few years, Homebase has grown significantly in both impact and size. As our organization has become more complex, our interim Chief Operating Officer (COO) has laid the foundation for the internal infrastructure and team needed to support this exciting growth. With her retirement on the horizon, we are now seeking our next Chief Operating Officer to join our enthusiastic team and continue in this important work.

Our next COO will be a seasoned professional who will be a core member of the Executive Team. They will be responsible for the organization’s overall operations and administration. Guided by core values of equity and impact, they will have a dual focus: (1) leading the design and implementation of infrastructure and systems to support and enhance our current work, and (2) building for the future state and needs of Homebase operations.

This is a dynamic position for a collaborative leader at a flexible, fun, and supportive organization where mission animates everything. This position can be remote or based out of our San Francisco office, with the option for hybrid scheduling, and the COO will report to the Executive Director.

TO APPLY

This search is being led by Emily Wexler, Rachel Burgoyne, and Danielle Higa of NPAG. Candidates may submit their cover letter, outlining their interest and qualifications, along with their resume via NPAG’s candidate portal.

To develop transformative solutions to homelessness, Homebase believes in centering the individuals and communities most impacted by its structural causes — including people of color, people with lived experience of poverty, people with disabilities, and those who identify as LGBTQ+ and GNC. We strongly encourage applications from people with these identities or who are members of other historically marginalized communities.

Special consideration will be given to applicants with lived experience of housing instability, homelessness, and/or criminal justice involvement, including arrest and conviction records.
