Home Repair Program Manager

About Us:

Home Repairs for Good (HRG) is a nonprofit organization in Indianapolis whose mission is helping older adults and those with disabilities age in place safely. We do this by providing home repairs at no cost to the homeowner. We use volunteers, workforce development trainees, subcontractors and staff to complete the repairs and fund them through donations and grants.

This role needs home renovation, construction or trades experience—the program manager is constantly aware of the incoming home repair projects, building relationships with handy volunteers that can be paired with home repair projects, triaging when projects need to be assigned to subcontractors and maintaining solid relationships with our various trades subcontractors. The Program Manager owns the planning, execution, coordination and communication for Home Repair Program projects to ensure the work and volunteer experience are completed to the best of our abilities.
