Description

This position is central to the Missionary Department’s role to “Invite others to come unto Christ by helping them receive the restored gospel though faith in Jesus Christ and His Atonement, repentance, baptism, receiving the Holy Ghost, and enduring to the end.” This position processes missionary service decisions, as determined by the Brethren, by providing counsel and support to priesthood leaders in matters of missionary service eligibility. Additionally, it plays a pivotal role in maintaining the assignment calendar and coordinating with the Quorum of the Twelve office. Coordination with the administrative assistants of individual Apostles is also a key responsibility, particularly addressing special requests for assistance. In addition to these core responsibilities, this position actively supports the manager of pre-field services by performing various administrative duties. This includes scheduling and coordinating meetings, collecting and organizing data, compiling information and maintaining filing systems pertaining to missionary assignment decisions. Another integral aspect of the role involves the preparation of a substantial volume of correspondence each month for the Missionary Department Executive Director and Assistant Executive Directors to sign. The customers for this position are the Quorum of the Twelve, General Authorities, priesthood leaders, prospective missionaries, and pre-field management. This position is a two-year, fixed term role with the potential for extension or conversion to a permanent position based on performance and organizational needs. Church employees find joy and satisfaction in using their unique talents and abilities to further the Lord’s work. From the IT professional who develops an app that sends the gospel message worldwide, to the facilities manager who maintains our buildings— giving Church members places to worship, teach, learn, and receive sacred ordinances—our employees seek innovative ways to share the gospel of Jesus Christ with the world. They are literally working in His kingdom. Only members of the Church who are worthy of a temple recommend qualify for employment. Apart from this, the Church is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate in its employment decisions on any basis that would violate U.S. or local law. Qualified applicants will be considered for employment without regard to race, national origin, color, gender, pregnancy, marital status, age, disability, genetic information, veteran status, or other legally protected categories that apply to the Church.
