PINELLAS COUNTY HOUSING AUTHORITY

<div>THE OPPORTUNITY
Are you someone who thrives in fast-moving environments, loves variety in your workday, and believes meaningful work happens when mission meets momentum?
The Executive Support Specialist plays a critical role at the heart of the Pinellas County Housing Authority (PCHA). This is not a checklist-based role, and no two days look the same. One day you may be supporting executive leadership with high-level coordination; the next, you might be helping shape a presentation, gathering content for social media, or refining a project through multiple iterations until it reaches its full potential.
This role is ideal for someone who is self-directed, adaptable, creative, and highly organized, with the ability to pivot quickly, prioritize what matters most, and confidently move between administrative precision and creative problem-solving. You will be trusted with autonomy, encouraged to bring ideas forward, and expected to grow alongside the organization.
SUMMARY:
This is highly responsible, professional administrative and creative support work providing comprehensive assistance to the Executive Team. The Executive Support Specialist exercises independent judgment and initiative in alignment with PCHA&rsquo;s mission, values, policies, and strategic priorities.
Direction is provided through general guidance rather than step-by-step instruction. Success in this role requires the ability to infer needs, accept and apply feedback, and refine work through multiple revisions in collaboration with leadership. The position supports both executive operations and organizational communications, contributing directly to PCHA&rsquo;s effectiveness, culture, and public presence.
