Want to create life-changing experiences for the youth of New Zealand while developing a team?
We know there is someone out there with the call to impact youth and lead a team inspired to develop ministry programmes that create life-changing experiences.
This person will have self-awareness and undertake every challenge with a growth mind-set. They will spearhead the development and execution of our core holiday programmes, Family Camps, Easter Camp, Youth Holiday Camps and Leader Development Camps, with creativity and energy. They will be developing the Springs Internship programme.
If you have worked in a Christian camping organisation before and have experience in leading faith-based youth programmes and large events, then you will appreciate the challenges and opportunities involved. With a team of experienced Coordinators to lead and support, there is much to do. Your powers of persuasion, delegation and organisational skills will be tested. Even with a clear plan, anything can happen. We will come to rely on your calm and grounded approach to problem-solving and health & safety expertise to troubleshoot whatever comes up.
As a lead organiser for some of our major annual events, you will be a clear communicator providing insightful direction and pastoral care to the team and value the input of others. All forms of communications will be a natural strength of your skillset, whether it be as the ‘face' of the event, preparing programme reports or building relationships with our guests, volunteers, and our wider community.
