Full job description
Part time administrator for Wimborne Methodist Church
10 hours per week initially, pay £14.10 per hour, split of hours to be agreed.

We are a thriving Methodist Church in Wimborne which needs someone to provide professional administrative support to take the place of volunteers who currently conduct the work in this role.
Efficient administration, including communications, property hire and logistical support to worship, is key to enabling the Church to fulfil its mission.
Communication includes preparation of newsletters for circulation by print, email and website, maintaining social media and liaising with print and broadcast media as required.
Worship support includes preparing presentation material for Sunday worship from information provided by the preacher and the maintenance of duty rotas for Sunday services.
Property work is focussed on letting of rooms within the church, invoicing of rents and maintaining the diary of use of our premises. There is no direct involvement in property maintenance.
As this is a new role it is likely that it will evolve as we gain experience of how the role works and it may take more time and extend into other areas.

SO:
The skills and experience needed, which are more important than formal qualifications, are:
Experience of working in administrative roles, of working without direct supervision and of dealing with customers and suppliers.
Proficiency in basic computer skills and the use of social media.
To be well organised and self disciplined with an ability to relate positively to other people while being willing to learn new skills and develop personally.

It may be an advantage if you have worked in a voluntary, charitable or faith-based organisation. It is not necessary to be a worshipping member of a Christian church, but you do need to have sympathy with the essence of Christian ethos. You will be required to be aware of the discipline of the Methodist Church as it applies to this role and agree to be bound by it.
Initially we are looking for 10 hours per week at £14.10 per hour with the spread of time to be mutually agreed. As this is a vacant role it is available now and we are keen to fill it as soon as possible.
If you are interested in this important and potentially fulfilling role, please contact the church at WMC.help@outlook.com For further details and application form.
Please note, we are not recruiting through agencies

Planning your Visit

Welcome from the VicarRevd. Peter Breckwoldt

Let me welcome you to St John’s! I am so delighted you have found our web site. We are a Church family in Wimborne for anyone living, working or studying around this area. Whoever you are, whatever your age, whether you’re an experienced Christian or not, we would love you to join us.

From an intrigued onlooker to the committed follower we are keen that everyone should grow in relationship with God through knowing Jesus. To help us do that our emphasis is on hearing God speak to us by his Holy Spirit through his word, the Bible. Each of us knows that we only grow in a relationship with someone and get to know them when we spend time listening to them and responding and reacting to what they say. So the focus of St John’s is on listening to God’s word, talking to him in prayer and taking up all that he says.

The Church family here at St John’s longs to help anyone who wants to investigate the life of Jesus. On this site you will find people, meetings, talks and events shaped to help you take another step forward in finding out more about God and his love for us in Jesus, and to help you get linked into the church family life.

I do hope I will have the opportunity to meet you personally in the very near future and that you will quickly feel at home at St John’s.

Revd. Peter Breckwoldt
