Part-Time Move Coordination Specialist
About The Position
As part of this project, the Move Coordination Specialist supports residents as they transition to other Plymouth buildings. Many residents experience physical, cognitive, or behavioral health challenges and will need hands-on assistance to prepare for their moves. The Specialist provides coaching, light packing help, logistical coordination, and consistent check-ins to ensure each household is ready for move day. Plymouth Housing is a nonprofit organization that develops and operates permanent supportive housing for single adults who have experienced chronic homelessness. With apartment buildings throughout King County, Plymouth is helping the most vulnerable members of our community leave homelessness behind forever. At Plymouth, we’re not simply trying to get people off the streets. We provide supportive services like case management and health care so that our residents can thrive long-term. As part of our strategic vision, we are building internal behavioral health services and transforming our systems to address rapid growth and the changing needs of residents.
