  • Exceptional writing and editing skills with the ability to communicate impact clearly and compellingly.
  • Strong organizational and project management skills; able to manage multiple priorities and stakeholders.
  • Relational intelligence and attentiveness to ministry partner care; able to operate with discretion and pastoral sensitivity.
  • Experience with estate and gift planning planned giving or estate ministry partners is a plus but not required.
  • Ability to travel 1-3 times a year for team meetings or conferences.
  • A working knowledge of current Microsoft Software applications (Outlook, Word, Excel, Access and PowerPoint) is preferred
  • Demonstrated ability and commitment to work in a diverse team environment
