ABOUT THE CHURCH

We welcome everyone to join with us in discovering Jesus and sharing God’s love, especially by caring for those in need.

Located in a multicultural and socioeconomically diverse neighbourhood, the church actively promotes inclusion, stands against racism and discrimination, and is an equal opportunity employer. 

OUR ETHOS – GUIDING VALUES AND IDEALS

We believe that God is loving, good and just, and chooses to reveal himself to us! He made humans in his image, so we’re designed to live in relationship with him and with each other in community. The world is currently not as God wants, and his plan is to renew the whole of creation. He invites and calls us to the privilege of working with him on this mission.

With this in mind, we want to reflect God’s love and character in our values and actions.

OUR VALUES

• We value growing in relationship with God in a wide variety of ways - welcoming questions and doubts as vital parts of learning and growing. We long for people to know Jesus and follow Him.
• We build relationships on love, compassion, and mutual respect.
• We treat everyone with kindness and dignity, caring especially for those in need, and seeking justice and reconciliation.
• We seek to reflect God’s generosity, integrity and honesty in business.

• We believe leadership is servant-hearted, and all are encouraged to take part.
• We seek to express encouragement, forgiveness, and lasting hope.

OUR WORK AND MISSION

Our church activities flow out of our community's passions and interests, aiming to embody God's character in all we do.

OPERATIONS MANAGER - ROLE RESPONSIBILITIES

The Operations Manager is a key support for the church’s leadership and heads the staff team providing management over key operational and missional areas of the church’s activities.

They will need to be a “servant“ leader who is mentally agile, energetic, able to schedule and prioritise, a good delegator, a team player, a quick learner and capable of taking initiatives, with a healthy understanding of self-care - we’re not looking for a “hero”, but someone who can work sustainability.
