The dynamic field of organ and tissue donation offers exciting and rewarding employment opportunities for those who seek to make a difference in other people’s lives. At Gift of Hope, we serve one of the nation’s largest and busiest donation service areas and seek committed people to join our team to help us give hope and life to others through donation. Our staff members enjoy competitive salaries, a team environment and business-casual workplace attire. Qualified full-time staff receive full medical, dental, vision and life insurance benefits, as well as a 403b retirement plan and tuition reimbursement benefits and a generous time-off plan.

At Gift of Hope, veterans are a valuable part of our team. We offer competitive salaries and various opportunities to allow veterans to develop a career with us.  Veterans are offered many opportunities to transition into a civilian career and continue to use their dedicated skills to make hope possible.
