Are you passionate about serving your neighbor and ensuring access to healthcare?

Do you find joy in building relationships and connecting individuals with an impactful mission?

Do you excel at building dynamic teams and comprehensive development programs to achieve strategic goals?

If so, then you might be Alliance Medical Ministry’s next Director of Development and Communications.

Our Mission:
For more than 20 years, Alliance Medical Ministry (AMM) has been a mission-driven organization that provides access to comprehensive medical care to more than 2,200 working, uninsured adults living in Wake County. Health equity is an integral part of what AMM provides patients with in addressing the disparities that exist in our healthcare system today.
Uninsured individuals are less likely to receive preventive care, more likely to develop chronic illnesses, and more likely to be hospitalized for conditions that could have been prevented. All these factors make it hard to maintain employment, build financial security, and break cycles of poverty. At AMM, our team works diligently to ensure health care for all.
Comprehensive medical care provided at AMM includes acute and chronic medical care, lab and pharmacy services, health education, disease management, social work, counseling, an on-site community farm, and a comprehensive wellness program.
AMM is seeking a dynamic Director of Development and Communications to help grow the organization and ensure all in need have access to the health care they deserve. Reporting to the Executive Director, the Director of Development and Communications will join our compassionate and dedicated team, playing a key role in advancing AMM's strategic vision and driving efforts to support and serve our neighbors.
