We wanted to spread the word and let you help us fill a need at OCP:
Staff position available at Our Community Place
We are in need of committed extra hands to help OCP run!
We are looking for someone to commit to 10-20 hours each week. This person would be in a supportive leadership position, helping to run the daily programs and activities at OCP’s community center and connecting with community members.
We see this position as “entry level” and are therefore open to hiring someone without specific related experience or training. We are, however, looking for someone with the following characteristics:
- Ability to work with people of diverse backgrounds
- Maturity to deal with challenging situations
- Sound judgment and decision-making ability
- Reliable and responsible
- Energetic, outgoing, personable and welcoming
- Passion for the mission and vision of OCP
- Ability to work Monday – Wednesday from 9am to 2pm, Wednesdays (currently) for staff meetings from 2:30-4, and Thursdays from 3 to 8pm.
Basic computer literacy and fluency in Spanish would be an additional bonus.
We are particularly interested in welcoming someone into this position from our community - whether that’s someone who is already a regular part of our daily life, someone who is a member of Early Church, or someone who knows us through our newsletters and wider community of support.
Limited financial compensation may be negotiated. However, we are also interested to see if there might be volunteer energy for this position, including persons needing job training or an internship opportunity. We are open to more than one person filling this role; however, one individual is ideal.
If interested, please fill out the “Our Community Place Application” attached and return to us as soon as possible in order to be considered for the interview process. Applications will be accepted until the position is filled. However, for priority consideration, applications should be submitted before December 26. Start date could be as early as Monday, January 2nd
Please send applications to:
Sharon Kniss, Director
Our Community Place
17 E Johnson St
Harrisonburg, VA 22802
Applications will also be accepted in person at Our Community Place during open hours (9a-2p Mon-Wed, 3-8p Thurs)
