Be A Leader—SOS

Supervisor On Site (SOS)

Challenge yourself to become one of Nashville's finest builders, improve your leadership skills and have a blast! We invite you to join our amazing SOS team. No experience required.

We appreciate your interest in Nashville Area Habitat for Humanity. Your involvement with Habitat allows our family partners the opportunity to learn building skills, patience, and cooperation. We are currently building homes in Timberwood, a proposed 112-home all-Habitat community. This is our second model affordable housing community in Nashville.

Supervisors on Site provide hands on leadership during the construction of the houses, while working with family partners and sponsor volunteers. Our current SOSs understand the Habitat mission, communicate the principles and goals of Nashville Area Habitat for Humanity, are patient teachers and are committed to giving back to the community.

Qualifications for becoming an SOS are modest.

Possess a positive attitude.
Bring a cooperative spirit.
Help us provide a safe building experience.
Read and understand NAHFH safety books.
Learn to operate power tools safely and efficiently.
Encourage the proper use of safety equipment.
Demonstrate safe building procedures.
Become proficient at one or more building tasks.
Be willing to "see one, do one, teach one."
Provide motivation and encouragement to a diverse group of family partners and volunteers.
Assist in providing a productive and fun experience for all volunteers.

We do not ask for a specific commitment. We merely ask that when you arrive on site you are prepared to eat sausage biscuits, drink plenty of water, exercise muscles that you forgot you had, and above all, know that you are joining an exceptional group of people that get far more than they give.
