And don’t just take our word for it; we were recently certified as a 2022 Best Christian Workplace by the Best Christian Workplaces Institute (BCWI) for the third year in a row. The certification is based on an anonymous employee survey that measures workplace health in eight areas: fantastic teams, life-giving work, outstanding talent, uplifting growth, rewarding compensation, inspirational leadership, sustainable strategy, and healthy communication.

Currey’s Why Story

Life Coach, Men's Life Recovery

“The greatest people I have met in my life have been here, the worst people I have met have been here, and all in-between. I love that every day is different, but still filled with opportunity. The Mission has been a lot of things, but my work/ministry has NEVER been boring. I can say that I truly enjoy what I get to do here each day. I am not a TGIF person, nor do I ever dread Mondays. I love the opportunity to watch Jesus working in the lives of the people here... not just our participants, but also the volunteers and staff.”

Denise’s Why Story

Supervisor, Case Management, Women's Guest Services

“Working at the Mission represents a Divine appointment for me. Having worked as an executive banker for several years, I was spiritually called to prepare and serve the Lord among the poor.”

Thomas’s Why Story

Assistant Director, Men's Guest Services

“In this line of work, it takes people who are called or crazy. Sometimes it may take a bit of both. I was crazy enough to answer the call. I have grown to love what I do here. I have daily opportunities to promote positive life change and speak the truth in love, for some who have been outcasts in society. I do it all for God's glory.”

Laura’s Why Story

Director, Marketing & Communications, Development

“None of us go untouched from the hands of addiction—we forget that when we are in the throes of struggle and heartache. Working at the Mission, I have been reminded of that almost daily and it's given me a perspective of empathy and a greater connection to the humanity in other people. I see my father and brother in so many of the men the Mission helps. I see my mother in the single moms trying to provide for their children. I see my sister in each woman who comes through the Recovery Program wanting to get clean.”

Jean’s Why Story

Assistant Director, Women's Guest Services

“This is where the Lord wants me. I have tried once or twice to leave and the Lord shut every door for me. I love the Mission and what it stands for. I can freely share the gospel with a guest without fear of repercussions. I love working for an organization that truly cares for the staff and guests/participants we serve. It's just not lip service. I can go to anyone of my coworkers and ask for prayer and they will stop what they are doing at that moment and will pray with me. That means so much to me.”

Albert’s Why Story

Community Living Advocate, Men's Life Recovery

“Because I've been in recovery for over 15 years, I'm able to give back through my experiences and the many obstacles that I had to overcome. It's a blessing to work for the Mission. One of my biggest goals in life is to see lives changed. A male participant told me one day that he helped someone from his past find direction and get some help for his addiction. For me, it was like seeing a 'seed' growing into a tree! The excitement that he shared with me confirmed that I'm in the right place. Gratitude!”

Alexis’s Why Story

Assistant Director, Men's and Women's Life Recovery

“I have felt so seen and empowered at Nashville Rescue Mission. I feel like my bosses see me, call out my strengths, and expect greatness from me. It's extremely encouraging to know that I have powerful women in my corner to both look up to and be coached by.”

BENEFITS

 

Health Benefits, Time Away From Work, Paid Leave, Life Insurance, and More

Eligible employees have medical plan options that give you the flexibility to choose the coverage that is right for you. Plans include a Health Savings Account with both employee and employer contributions. Telemedicine services are also available with all plans. You can also enroll in Dental and Vision plans.

Nashville Rescue Mission offers a generous Paid Time Off policy that allows new employees up to 27 days off their first year (pro-rated based on start date) for relaxation, holidays, and to care for themselves or a family member in times of illness.

To enable employees to care for and bond with a newborn, newly adopted, or newly placed child, Nashville Rescue Mission employees receive up to 6 weeks of paid maternity leave at 100% of their base rate to bond with a new child. This benefit can be used to extend a maternity leave or allow a father two weeks of paid paternity leave to bond with a new child.

Nashville Rescue Mission recognizes the special need of its employees to seek and obtain renewal. We provide paid sabbatical leave for employees starting at 5 years of service. This time provides an opportunity for renewal, refreshment, and rejuvenation.

When life is getting difficult, it can help to talk with a professional. That’s why we have a Chaplain on staff as well as offer free counseling and referral services through the Employee Assistance Program.

As part of the Nashville Rescue Mission family, you can also enjoy other company-paid benefits like life insurance and short and long-term disability.

 

Student Loan Forgiveness

Created under the College Cost Reduction and Access Act of 2007, Public Service Loan Forgiveness allows borrowers who work full-time for nonprofits to have their outstanding debt forgiven tax-free on Federal Direct Loans, after making 120 qualifying monthly payments under a qualifying repayment plan.

 

Retirement

Let us help you save for the future. Nashville Rescue Mission contributes 3% of an employee’s earnings after they have completed their first year of service. If you decide to contribute to the plan as well, you will enjoy a 50% match on contributions from 1% to 6%.
