https://payidpokie.net came to mind reading about the pay range being tied to grant funding, since that uncertainty seems like the hardest part of committing to a role like this. The requirement for Spanish and English fluency alongside management experience really narrows the pool, and I'd guess the interpersonal skills matter even more than the organizational ones for someone coordinating outreach workers. Having seen how much community health work depends on trust built face to face, I think whoever fills this position will spend as much time listening as managing.
