Joining The American Red Cross is like nothing else – it’s as much
something you feel as something you do. You become a vital part of the
world’s largest humanitarian network. Joining a team of welcoming
individuals who are exceptional, yet unassuming. Diverse, yet
uncompromising in unity. You grow your career within a movement that
matters, where success is measured in people helped, communities made
whole, and individuals equipped to never stop changing lives and
situations for the better.
When you choose to be a force for good, you’ll have mentors who empower
your growth along a purposeful career path. You align your life’s work
with an ongoing mission that’s bigger than all of us. As you care for
others, you’re cared for with competitive compensation and benefits. You
join a community that respects who you are away from work as much as
what you do while at work.
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW (Job Overview):
When you join our team you will be utilizing your healthcare and/or
customer service skills to assist with every step of the blood
collection process at our fixed site locations. This includes
collaborating with your team to create a welcoming and comfortable
