🏢 About RED NOSES Clowndoctors International

RED NOSES International is a unique non-profit that uses healthcare clowning to bring joy and emotional support to vulnerable communities worldwide. Working here means contributing to a creative, compassionate mission that spans 11 countries and crisis zones, with a strong emphasis on social inclusion and empowerment.

About This Role

This role leads the organization's first group-wide DEI Assessment, designing and implementing a mixed-methods evaluation across diverse cultural contexts in Europe, Jordan, and Palestine. You will shape RED NOSES' DEI strategy for 2027–2030, directly influencing how the organization fosters equity and inclusion in its clowning programs and internal operations.

💡 A Day in the Life

A typical day might start with a video call with the DEI Advisory Panel to discuss interview protocols, followed by analyzing survey data from three country offices. After lunch, you'd facilitate a focus group with clowns and staff via Zoom, then draft a section of the DEI Assessment Report, incorporating trauma-informed feedback from the morning session.
