St. Matthew's Episcopal Church is searching for a new part-time Parish Administrator to begin work in October 2023. Interested applicants should send a cover letter and résumé to Fr. Guillermo Arboleda at FrGAA@StMattSav.org.
The purpose of this role is to fulfill the day-to-day affairs of the church which require ongoing attention and to perform general office work, thus relieving the Rector of executive and clerical duties. The Administrator is on the frontlines and is often the first person the public sees or talks to. In that sense, the Administrator becomes a “pastor “to visitors or callers. The Administrator must create an environment that is inviting to people passing through every day.
As a paid member of the staff of St. Matthew’s Episcopal Church, the Administrator is supervised by the Rector, or in the absence of a rector, by the Senior Warden (an elected lay leadership position). Because of the nature of this position, the Administrator works closely with the Rector, the Vestry and other lay leaders, Day Care staff, and those parishioners who volunteer in the parish building during the week.
