We are looking for someone who is a has a vibrant relationship with Jesus, has a strong interest in audio and visual technology, works with ease in MS Office and other common workplace applications, is eager and versatile and is a flexible team player.

Community Presbyterian Church is a respected evangelical community of faith in the East Bay region of San Francisco. We have a long history of serving Christ, having been an active presence in our region since the mid-1850’s. Despite our long history, however, we are fully contemporary in our approach and desire to preach and live out the Gospel. Recently, we affiliated with the Evangelical Presbyterian Church denomination reflecting our commitment to the pursuit of excellence and to being “radically engaged” with each other and with our broader community.

This position is a great opportunity that will allow someone with aptitude but limited experience to gain hands-on exposure working with A/V technology in a ministry environment.
