The International Rescue Committee (IRC) is seeking a driven partnerships professional with a wealth of knowledge and excitement for the health sector, who will develop and deepen partnerships with corporate partners in support of our mission to help refugees survive, recover and gain control of their future.

Since its inception in 1933, the IRC offers lifesaving care and life-changing assistance to refugees forced to flee from war or disaster.
