Centre Manager

Bethany Church

Bethany Church is an FIEC church whose mission is to Love God, Love People, and Make Disciples. Our congregation is a thriving church that averages 300 people on Sundays with additional ministries throughout the week.
Since the opening of the current centre in November 1997, the congregation and range of activities have grown, but commitment to the life-giving message of Jesus has not changed. The congregation is blessed with a modern, purpose-built building with a seating capacity of 350 and outfitted with many great updates to further ministry and the work of the church.
The Centre Manager is a key role to ensure the Centre is safe, welcoming, well maintained and used effectively in line with church policies, supporting church life, ministry and service to the community.
