Project and Operations Manager

Boston Neighborhood Community Land Trust (BNCLT) works to combat displacement by creating permanently affordable, community-controlled housing in the Boston area, with a geographic focus on Roxbury, Dorchester, and Mattapan. BNCLT builds neighborhood stability, housing equity, and community strength among low- and moderate-income residents most at risk of displacement; and through the collective strength of partners working toward a shared and equitable future. BNCLT’s primary focus is to take properties off the speculative market by acquiring scattered site buildings for rental and home ownerships. 

BNCLT plans to continue its pace of acquisition for rental buildings, as well as to acquire homes that can be sold affordably to home buyers, using a ground lease to regulate affordability over time.  BNCLT’s top priority is to prevent the displacement of residents in predominantly BIPOC neighborhoods in Dorchester, Roxbury, and Mattapan. 

BNCLT is on a strong growth path, and we are excited to grow our team to build the capacity we need as we broaden our reach and our impact.
