AmeriCorps
In partnership with local Habitat organizations across the U.S., Habitat places AmeriCorps members in a variety of roles to increase Habitat’s ability to build and repair homes, expand housing services and engage the community. These are not jobs, but rather part-time or full-time service opportunities that offer a modest living allowance for up to one-year terms. Whether serving on an active build site or within an office setting, AmeriCorps members can learn and develop new skills and confidence, while serving a critical role in helping address important community needs.
Consultants
Habitat contracts with consultants (individuals or companies) on time-bound, project-related engagements. These include tasks such as housing research, IT projects, baseline assessments and more. Consultants typically provide their own equipment and work independently to meet the deliverables and timelines outlined in the statement of work.
Contingent-funded opportunities
When seeking funding and institutional awards from professional foundations or institutional donors, Habitat looks to fill roles to supplement our existing talent in support of those projects. Opportunities typically include chiefs of party, project managers and technical subject matter experts in areas such as housing, WASH, land tenure, urbanization and disaster response. These roles are typically time-bound, field-based in nature, may have national or multi-country scopes and are contingent upon Habitat being awarded the funding.
Disaster Response
Our Disaster Risk Reduction and Response program helps communities around the world prepare for and recover from disasters that impact affordable housing. Habitat provides shelter assistance, technical support, training and partnerships to individuals who find themselves in unthinkable situations due to disasters caused by natural hazards, displacement, war, and civil unrest. During active disasters, we may recruit a variety of professional skill sets, especially candidates who have previous disaster response experience and familiarity with the region. In blue skies, we may recruit professionals in the field of community-based disaster mitigation and resilience planning related to the built environment. The positions last from 90 days to several years and may involve long hours and intense work environments.
