Director of Human Resources

American Friends of Magen David Adom - New York, NY
American Friends of Magen David Adom is seeking a Director of Human Resources who will be responsible for overseeing and managing the organization's human resources functions. This position will play a critical role in developing and implementing effective human resources strategies, strengthening organizational policies and procedures, ensuring regulatory compliance, and supporting a positive, productive, and accountable workplace culture.

This position is eligible for a hybrid work schedule with two to three work-from-home days.

American Friends of Magen David Adom (AFMDA) is a partner in the vital work Magen David Adom (MDA) does every day for Israel’s 9.2 million population by funding a wide variety of emergency vehicles, a new national blood center, critically needed medical supplies, and rigorous EMT training. AFMDA is one of the fastest-growing Jewish nonprofit organizations in the US. As Israel’s official representative to the International Red Cross, Magen David Adom’s role precludes it from accepting governmental support for its general operations. Because of this arrangement, MDA relies on support from donors, including those from the United States, to keep its dispatch systems, training, and equipment the best in the world.

"What makes this position particularly rewarding is the opportunity to have a lasting impact on both the organization and the individuals who make its work possible. The Director of Human Resources will help shape the employee experience, strengthen our leadership capacity, and ensure that AFMDA remains a place where exceptional people want to work, grow, and build meaningful careers." — Catherine Reed, Chief Executive Officer
