About the role
Director of State Home Visiting System Transformation This position will lead state-level work to develop and implement a coordinated home visiting system through the Center for Coordinating Oregon Home Visiting Systems (CCOHVS) housed at PSU's Regional Research Institute. The position will be responsible for leading collaborative cross-system design, planning and implementation to achieve key systems goals stated in Oregon's comprehensive, cross-sector Early Childhood Strategic Plan, Raise Up Oregon 2.0 and in alignment with the Early Childhood Home Visiting Systems Change Theory of Action. This position will work directly with state agency directors, policy makers, and other members of the Early Learning Council and related committees to implement changes needed to ensure that Oregon's home visiting system is "equitable, integrated, accessible, inclusive, anti-racist, and family centered." The position will be responsible for developing and implementing collaborative, group-based problem solving strategies to build consensus across multiple strategic partners that provide, coordinate, and/or fund home visiting for families with young children. This is a high-level position requiring a Master's degree or Bachelor's degree plus relevant experience in leading collaborative group-based processes using systems change, human-centered design, and/or equity-focused inquiry strategies. Experience and/or knowledge of early childhood and/or home visiting programs and services across program models and across state agencies is required.
Minimum Qualifications:
Master's degree plus 4 years experience, or a Bachelor's degree plus 6 years of experience, in human services-related fields (early childhood/parenting education, child welfare, child and family development, education, health care or public health). Experience and/or knowledge of early childhood and/or home visiting programs and services provided through community-based and/or government agencies. Demonstrated ability to work within and across human service programs and systems, and to independently develop, implement, and manage complex group-based collaborative processes. Must reside in Oregon or Washington state and be able to work in person on PSU campus in downtown Portland, attending regional or national conferences, or regional meetings as needed. Possession of a valid State-issued driver's license. Salary is dependent on several factors, and new employees will typically start around the Q1 level to allow for later growth within the salary band. The starting annual salary for this position will be between $71,520 and $83,868, but may be negotiated above this range, dependent upon the factors above, the budget of the hiring department, and approval from HR. An excellent benefits package includes 95% premium paid healthcare; a generous retirement and vacation package; and reduced tuition rates for employee, spouse or dependent at any of the Oregon University System schools.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
