If you're a solutions-driven, passionate change-maker, come join us in positively impacting the lives of millions of people world-wide for a better future.
Background:
IRC Arizona operates Health, Safety, and Wellness programming across both the Phoenix and Tucson offices, addressing the health, safety, and stabilization needs of refugees, asylees, survivors of trafficking and torture, and other vulnerable populations. The Health Program addresses vulnerable populations' health needs through medical case management, health education, and public health interventions, working in collaboration with the healthcare sector, public health authorities, medical providers, facilities, universities, and community agencies. The Safety & Wellness Department provides therapeutic services, asylum casework, survivor support, anti-trafficking and victim services, and case management for individuals with acute safety and stabilization needs.
As IRC Arizona continues to rebuild and adapt to changing refugee arrivals, an uncertain federal funding environment, and evolving community needs, there is a growing need for statewide coordination across these programs. Rather than operating independently across Phoenix and Tucson, IRC Arizona can strengthen its statewide impact through a unified Safety, Health, and Wellness strategy that aligns resources, expands partnerships, builds staff capacity, and improves outcomes for clients and communities in both offices.
Job Overview:
The Senior Program Manager for Safety, Health & Wellness provides unified, statewide program oversight, staff supervision, partnership development, and grant maintenance for IRC Arizona's Health and Safety & Wellness programs across both Phoenix and Tucson. This position maintains service provision and contract compliance for Therapeutic Services, Asylum Casework, Survivors of Torture, Anti-Trafficking and Victim Services, the Arizona Asylum Network, Preferred Communities, medical case management (Program Initial Resettlement, Matching Grant, and Refugee Support Services), and public health and health literacy programming. This position builds a shared statewide strategy that strengthens program quality, expands partnerships and diversified funding, and coordinates growth and shared learning across both offices, while preserving the ability of each office to respond to its community's distinct needs.

Implement, monitor, and provide ongoing training on a trauma-informed service model for Health and Safety & Wellness staff.
Provide appropriate supervision and case coordination to ensure acute client needs are met in a timely and culturally appropriate manner across all programs.

Tips for Your Wellness Manager Job Search
Tailor your resume to program outcomes
Wellness managers are hired to move metrics. Reframe your experience around measurable program results, such as participation rates, health risk assessment improvements, or vendor contract savings, rather than listing duties you performed.
List certifications prominently above experience
Credentials like CHES, CWWPM, or ACE Health Coach carry significant weight in screening. Place them in a dedicated section near the top of your resume so hiring managers and applicant tracking systems catch them immediately.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists wellness manager openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match your specialization and apply directly to each listing without jumping between multiple sites.
Filter openings by industry vertical
Corporate wellness, hospital-based wellness, and university wellness roles expect very different skill sets. Target postings that align with the population you have experience serving, since cross-sector transitions often require explaining your transferable experience in your cover letter.
Prepare a portfolio of program samples
Interviewers frequently ask candidates to walk through a past program design. Bring anonymized examples of a needs assessment, a program calendar, a communication campaign, or a vendor evaluation you led to make your experience concrete and memorable.
Negotiate scope before accepting a title
Wellness manager roles vary widely in budget authority, staffing, and reporting structure. Before accepting an offer, clarify your program budget ownership, whether you manage vendors or direct staff, and how the role is evaluated, since these factors define real career trajectory.
Wellness Manager Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most wellness managers?
The companies hiring the most wellness managers right now include PNC Financial Services, Arrow Senior Living, and Palm Beach Tan, with the largest share of openings in California, Florida, and New Jersey, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Large self-insured employers, health systems, and universities tend to post the highest volume of these roles.
How many wellness manager jobs are remote?
About 33% of wellness manager openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, though this varies by industry and employer size. Program coordination, vendor management, communications, and data reporting duties tend to be the most remote-compatible, while roles that include on-site fitness operations or in-person health screenings typically require a physical presence.
How do you become a wellness manager?
Start by earning a bachelor's degree in health promotion, public health, kinesiology, or a related field, then pursue a recognized credential such as the CHES or a corporate wellness designation. Build hands-on experience coordinating wellness programs, managing vendors, or working in health coaching. Develop data skills to track participation and outcomes, since employers expect candidates to demonstrate program effectiveness, not just program delivery.
Can I get hired as a wellness manager without direct experience?
Yes, but you'll need to position adjacent experience deliberately. Roles in health coaching, benefits administration, fitness management, employee engagement, or public health outreach give you transferable skills in program design and population health. Highlight any projects where you planned a health initiative, analyzed participation data, or coordinated with vendors, and pair that with a relevant certification to strengthen your candidacy.
What does the wellness manager interview process look like?
Most processes include an initial phone or video screen with HR, followed by a competency-based interview with the hiring manager focused on program design, data analysis, and stakeholder communication. Many employers add a panel interview with benefits, HR leadership, or operations staff. Some ask candidates to present a past program case study or a brief proposal for a new initiative as a final step.
Where can I find and apply to wellness manager jobs?
You can find and apply to wellness manager jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from employers across the United States in one place. Search the listings to find roles that match your experience level, industry background, and preferred location, then apply directly to each one that fits.
