Job Description
The Executive Director of the Sacramento Community Land Trust will lead the
organization’s development, financial, and marketing programs to preserve or build
multiple very-low and low-income housing units to help prevent displacement of
historically discriminated Sacramento residents.
The Board of Directors has laid the groundwork over the last five years by establishing
baseline programs in each of these areas including a draft project list, consistent
community meetings and coordination, tax reporting and financial management
programs, and social platforms and marketing strategy.
The ED will work to refine and lead the financing of the organization’s five-year

the ED will be expected to develop an annual plan and budget to accomplish
identified goals and objectives, which includes grant writing and fundraising efforts.
As a community-centered organization, the ED will work with community and members
to develop procedure and application process for selecting residents to be on an Advisory Board. On a monthly basis, the ED will confer with the Board to discuss
priorities, challenges, and potential changes to the organization’s annual plan.
Applicants from historically marginalized groups and those who have a historical
connection to Sacramento are especially encouraged to submit an application. We are
seeking applicants from all backgrounds and identities to ensure we get the best, most
creative talent on our team.
