Now hiring — come join the Forward Movement team
Forward Movement is expanding to meet the urgent needs of today’s church. Back in 1935, the Episcopal Church’s General Convention created Forward Movement with a mandate to “reinvigorate the life of the church” and we’ve been doing that faithfully ever since. These days, our tagline summarizes our mission: Inspire disciples. Empower evangelists.
With an increased interest in practicing spiritual disciplines and teaching the basics of our faith, Forward Movement needs to grow to support disciples and seekers everywhere. In today’s fast-paced, rapidly evolving environment, we need resilient staff members to join our team, ready to meet the opportunities of today and tomorrow.
We currently have four open positions, and soon we expect to announce a further expansion with additional opportunities. You can find detailed position descriptions linked here. If you’d like to learn more about these positions, please feel free to contact us at jobs@forwardmovement.org.
