Data Management Coordinator

Rise Community Development is the region’s foremost 501(c)(3) not-for-profit housing and community development organization. Rise partners with communities to build stronger, more equitable St. Louis area neighborhoods. By providing capacity-building assistance, housing development services and access to financing, Rise makes the connections between non-profit community organizations, financial institutions and government that make successful neighborhood revitalization possible. Our work transforms neighborhoods by developing both market rate housing and quality affordable housing for working families and by strengthening the ability of community-based development organizations to participate in the revitalization of their communities.

The successful candidate will demonstrate proficiency working with relational databases (SQL) and geospatial software (ArcGIS or QGIS), as well as a basic familiarity with creating web-based interactive maps and reports. S/he will build and sustain relationships with a wide variety of partner organizations to obtain, share, and disseminate data. A bachelor’s degree, two years experience with GIS and database design/management, familiarity with local data sources, data analysis best practices, visualization tools, and good verbal and written communication skills are required. Rise currently uses a mix of tools depending on the specific project/client, so strong knowledge of fundamentals is more important than familiarity with a specific software package, and the successful candidate will have some flexibility in approach depending on their strengths.
