IsraAID US is looking for a senior, entrepreneurial leader to join the team in Strategic Growth & Partnerships. This is a unique opportunity to build a role around your strengths and bring your experience, network, and ideas to the intersection of philanthropy, geopolitics, and humanitarian response.

✦ Deep knowledge of the US philanthropic industry, with the ability to open doors across corporates, civil society, philanthropy, multilateral organizations, and governmental entities.

✦ Entrepreneurial, systems-thinker who spots opportunities rather than just executing
✦ Thrives in fast-moving, international, high-stakes environments
✦ Sharp, personable, and strong at public representation. Equally at home in a boardroom or on a call with a field team
✦ Comfortable with AI tools and able to travel internationally
✦ Bachelor's degree - required
We care most about growth and organizational positioning. Together, not separately. This is a rare chance to leave a mark at the intersection of philanthropy, geopolitics, and disaster response.
📋 Practical notes: We are looking for NYC or CA based candidates. Hebrew is a plus. Valid US work authorization required - we cannot sponsor visas. Salary commensurate with experience.
📍 New York City or California preferred
