Your mission impact
Triages community nominations from Austin Code Compliance and senior agencies so aid reaches the neighbors who need it fastest.
The split week
Full-Time, Monday-Friday, 8:00 AM - 4:30 PM.
About the role
Yard Reboot Project, Inc. runs two engines out of one operation: paid commercial and residential grounds care Monday through Thursday, and 100% free property rescues for seniors, disabled veterans, and homebound neighbors every Friday. Both engines run on dispatch. That is your seat.
As Operations & Dispatch Coordinator you build the routes, cluster the stops for density so crews spend their hours working instead of driving, field the incoming calls and quote requests, and keep the charitable nomination queue moving from intake to scheduled build. You are the calm voice a worried homeowner reaches, and the reason a crew lead never wonders what happens next.
This role is mostly office-based with regular field contact. It suits someone who is organizationally relentless, comfortable on the phone with people in difficult circumstances, and satisfied by a well-run day.
Why take this job
Every hour of drive time you cut turns into another hour of relief work. You will see the throughput you create show up as families served on our public transparency dashboard.
