Office Administrator

The Organization: We are a small, progressive congregation in downtown Dover, dedicated to the wellbeing of the membership and of the neighborhood.

What we do matters, a lot -- but we need a strong organizer to help make it possible!

The Position: We need an experienced administrator and organizer to manage the office and perform weekly administrative, secretarial, and financial tasks. The position requires a highly organized, self-initiating person to work 20-22 hours per week, beginning immediately. The starting wage is $18 per hour (with no benefits), but that rate could be increased for a highly skilled applicant.

Duties include:

• Front-line engagement with the public
• Organizing and managing the office
• Management of databases
• Preparing weekly and monthly newsletters
• Layout and graphic organizing

Skills needed are:

• Pleasant and friendly personality
• FLUENCY with Word AND Power Point
• Experience with graphic layouts
• Self-starting, not requiring constant supervision
• Very well organized
• Ability to write using correct English grammar

The preferred hours are 10-3 Monday through Friday, though we can be flexible for the right candidate. Although we are a Christian congregation, we welcome all applicants, of any faith. We value diversity in terms of age, class, race, ethnicity, gender identity, nationality, religion, age, and sexuality. The administrator reports to the Pastor. Remote work is not possible.

How to Apply: Send to Rev. Dr. Hodge a resume AND cover letter describing your interest in, and qualifications for, the position. We will NOT consider candidates who do not have a college degree or who do not submit a cover letter. Review of candidates will begin immediately.
