American Friends of Magen David Adom is seeking a Director of Operations & Administration who will play an important role in strengthening organizational effectiveness, advancing strategic priorities, and ensuring that AFMDA's New York headquarters and three regional offices operate efficiently and effectively in support of the organization's mission. The Director will have a broad portfolio of responsibilities, including administrative operations, facilities management, vendor management, insurance, risk management, and related organizational initiatives across AFMDA's national operations.

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.

"At AFMDA, operational excellence is not simply about efficiency—it is about enabling extraordinary people to accomplish extraordinary things. There are few opportunities to combine the professional challenges and rewards of operational leadership with such a powerful sense of purpose." — Catherine Reed, Chief Executive Officer
