  • Tracking & Reporting

  • Maintain detailed utilization tracking using tools such as B2Gnow, Elation, Procore Diversity, or equivalent platforms.
  • Prepare and submit timely compliance reports to public agencies (e.g., NYCHA, DDC, SCA, DASNY, EDC).
  • Monitor MWBE spend against targets, provide variance analysis, and implement corrective actions if goals are not on track.
  • Training & Internal Support

  • Provide diversity compliance training to staff, subcontractors and project teams.
  • Advise on the integration of diversity strategies in project planning, bidding, and execution phases.
  • Collaborate with legal and contracts teams to ensure subcontract agreements include enforceable MWBE and Section 3 clauses.
  • Audit & Risk Management

  • Lead audit preparedness and respond to agency reviews and third-party audits.
  • Maintain accurate and audit-ready documentation for all subcontracting and diversity compliance activities.
  • Qualifications

    Required

  • Minimum 2 years of experience managing MWBE / DBE compliance, preferably on NYC public-sector capital projects.
  • In-depth knowledge of NYC Local Law 1, NYS Article 15-A, and the HUD Act of 1968 program requirements at the city and state levels.
  • Demonstrated experience with diversity utilization reporting and compliance systems (e.g., B2Gnow, Elation, Salesforce, Procore Diversity).
  • Strong understanding of public procurement procedures, contract language, and project lifecycle on design-build projects.
  • Experience working with NYC agencies such as NYCHA, DDC, SCA, HPD, or EDC.
  • Familiarity with Section 3, SDVOB, and other social equity compliance programs.
  • Excellent organizational, analytical, and communication skills.
  • Preferred
