Senior Multimedia Storyteller; Seattle

About Housing Connector

Housing Connector is a tech-for-good nonprofit transforming how communities use the private housing market to address homelessness. We partner with property owners and managers to reduce barriers that prevent people from accessing housing, while providing the financial and resident support that gives housing providers confidence to open more homes to people who need them.

Our model brings together property partners, community organizations, government, philanthropy, and technology to create simpler, more scalable pathways to housing. What started in Seattle in 2019 has grown into a multi-market organization with an ambitious vision: to deliver simple and scalable solutions until every person has a home.

Position Summary

Housing Connector is seeking a Senior Multimedia Storyteller to find, craft, capture, and tell the stories that demonstrate who we are, how our work is changing housing access, why our approach matters, and the local, national, and person level impact this work is generating in communities and across the country. Reporting to the VP of Investments & Partnerships, this role will work across Housing Connector to bring these stories to life for broad audiences.

We are committed to telling stories that reflect the richness and diversity of human experience and that simplify the complex systems we are working within for broad audiences. You will ensure that each narrative is represented with accuracy, cultural sensitivity, and respect for the storyteller’s own words and meaning. We value storytellers who approach their craft with humility, recognizing that the story belongs to the person who lived it, and their role is to be a faithful steward of their truth.

In this role, you will help build a culture where storytelling is embraced as an essential organizational practice across philanthropy, marketing and communications, recruitment, partnerships, program delivery, data collection and product development, and executive communications, not isolated as a marketing function.
