Full-Time, 8:00 AM - 4:00 PM

The Healthy Homes Coordinator-DPH Lead supports the implementation and day-to-day coordination of Revitalize CDC’s Massachusetts Department of Public Health Lead Grant. As a member of the Neighborhood Sustainability Department, this position helps households navigate the lead-hazard identification and remediation process while coordinating communication among property owners, residents, inspectors, contractors, program partners, and funding agencies. The Coordinator will develop a strong working knowledge of lead-hazard regulations, program requirements, and remediation practices.

This person will serve as a primary point of contact for participating households and help move projects efficiently from initial inquiry through inspection, remediation, clearance, and closeout. Although this position will work primarily within the DPH Lead Grant, the Coordinator may support other closely related lead-hazard reduction and Neighborhood Sustainability initiatives as departmental needs arise. This role necessitates occasional availability during evenings or weekends to support community events, program deadlines, and other time-critical tasks.

Such assignments are considered irregular and remain outside the standard weekly schedule.

• Communicate with lead inspectors, risk assessors, contractors, property owners, residents, and program partners to keep projects moving forward.
• Help prepare project files and documentation for bidding, contractor selection, and construction.
• Monitor project timelines, follow up on outstanding action items, and promptly elevate delays or concerns to the Manager of Neighborhood Sustainability.
