Jamie Rubin

Jamie Rubin comes to NYCHA with more than three decades of experience working on affordable housing, disaster recovery, major infrastructure projects, and clean energy in the public, private, and nonprofit sectors. He is currently the chief investment officer of Aligned Climate Capital, investing in the low-carbon economy nationally, and previously worked as CEO of Meridiam NA, investing in and developing transformative infrastructure projects, including LaGuardia Airport Terminal B, the Miami Beach monorail, and the D.C. Metro Purple Line extension.

Mr. Rubin served for five years as a top official in New York State government — building and leading the Governor’s Office of Storm Recovery to assist homeowners and small businesses while prioritizing long-term resiliency and environmental sustainability and safeguarding against fraud and abuse, overseeing the state’s affordable housing strategy as commissioner of New York State Homes and Community Renewal, and overseeing the executive chamber as director of state operations. He also served in the federal government as the director of President Obama’s Hurricane Sandy Recovery and Rebuilding Task Force, a senior advisor to U.S. Housing and Urban Development Secretary Shaun Donovan, and previously in the White House under President Bill Clinton, in the Office of the Chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, as well as on the Obama-Biden presidential transition in 2008.

Mr. Rubin has founded, led, or served on the board of more than a dozen nonprofits and community groups, including the Osborne Association, the Citizens Budget Commission, the Regional Plan Association, and GreaterNY. After the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, he spearheaded the creation of the $150 million New York Forward Loan Fund — which provides emergency low-interest loans to small businesses — and co-chaired the Recovery Task Force of the Human Services Council, the umbrella group of New York’s largest human services organizations. He is the founder and chair of the NYC 2025 initiative at New York University’s (NYU) Wagner School of Public Policy and, until recently, served as a director of the Housing Investment Trust, a subsidiary of the AFL-CIO Pension Fund.

He is a graduate of Harvard University and Yale Law School.
