Bishop's Assistant / Diocesan Coordinator

We're looking for a Bishop's Assistant/Diocesan Coordinator who is organized, trustworthy, and genuinely energized by the rhythms of church life. This is a role for someone who finds meaning in the behind-the-scenes work that makes ministry possible -- keeping a bishop's schedule on track, supporting people discerning a call to ordination, helping events come together, and being a gracious, steady presence for everyone who walks through the door (or calls the phone).

This is approximately 50% support directly to the Bishop and 50% support for broader diocesan operations.

Core Responsibilities

• Coordinate the Bishop's calendar, travel, and visitation schedule
• Serve as Secretary to the Commission on Ministry and as Vocations Secretary, supporting those in the ordination process
• Maintain confidential records and correspondence
• Manage the Sargent House facility calendar and onsite hospitality
• Support the planning of the Annual Meeting of Convention
• Serve as the welcoming first point of contact for the diocese
• Provide required annual reports to The Episcopal Church

You Might Be a Great Fit If You...

• Have 3-5 years of administrative experience and know your way around Microsoft Office and Acrobat Pro
• Are deeply organized but stay flexible when things shift (and they will)
• Handle sensitive information with real discretion
• Communicate clearly and promptly, in writing and in person
• Have some familiarity with The Episcopal Church -- or are eager to learn
• Speak Spanish or are committed to developing that skill
• Hold a bachelor's degree or bring equivalent experience

A Note on Culture

We value teamwork, trust, and a sense of humor. The right person for this role will feel at home in a faith-based workplace and will bring both competence and care to everything they do.

Medical insurance, pension, vacation, and leave time

Spanish language skills a plus; willingness to develop proficiency required
