We’re on a mission to support families battling pediatric cancer
Our team is the backbone of our organization—serving our families, supporting volunteers and donors, and spreading awareness every single day. We work together to provide a thriving community of comfort, hope, and support. We welcome passionate and talented individuals from diverse backgrounds and experiences to join our team.
Culture and Benefits
Our organization began with one child and, in turn, has helped thousands more.

We seek to create a community for our team which focuses on continuous professional development and learning, with compassion at our core.

Current Openings
Head Chef
RMH-NY is launching a new, in-house culinary program supported by newly renovated kitchens opening this spring. The Head Chef will play a foundational role in building, shaping, and leading this program from the ground up. This is not a role stepping into a fully established operation — it is an opportunity for a chef who thrives in program-building, is highly hands-on, and is energized by mission-driven work. The Head Chef will initially work alongside existing catered meal partnerships and volunteers while gradually building an internal kitchen team capable of delivering breakfast, lunch, dinner, and grab-and-go offerings daily. This role requires a unique blend of culinary excellence, leadership, operational discipline, and comfort working with volunteers and community groups. The Head Chef will be a visible and welcoming presence in the House, helping steward volunteers and donors while ensuring high-quality, nutritious, and family-friendly meals. This program represents a major evolution in how RMH-NY supports families.
Patient Navigator through AmeriCorps

3) a referral network with community-based organizations in target communities.
