Marketing and Communications Manager - Grand Rapids, United States - The Colossian Forum
Description
ORGANIZATION
The Colossian Forum ("TCF") is dedicated to equipping Christians to display the beauty of Christ right at the heart of our most painful conflicts, teaching believers to talk, discern, and act together as Christians in faithful ways that our divided world can no longer imagine. To that end, TCF has fine-tuned innovative practices for helping Christian organizations (like churches, schools, and non-profits) face into the challenges stemming from internal or external conflicts. Through thought-leadership and programming—including public events, small-group sessions, leader training and coaching, and intentional relationships—we prove that divisive issues can become catalysts to build healthy and life-giving communities that are growing in love of God and neighbor.
As a young but well-established non-profit ministry, TCF is positioned to grow dramatically over the next few years both in size and influence. Our vision is for transformed Christian communities—transformed from places of combative polarization (and losing credibility with young people and in larger society) to places that are charitable, thoughtful, and able to engage tough problems. Communities that know that even in disagreements, "all things hold together in Christ" (Col. 1:17).
OPPORTUNITY
We are seeking a passionate, relational, missional, and highly motivated Marketing and Communications Manager (the "Manager") to support TCF as we spread our message to a wider audience, leading to deeper missional and financial engagement. The Manager will help grow our base of invested partners through dynamic and innovative efforts, leveraging TCF's unique and inspirational mission.
This position offers the opportunity to bear witness to the growing fruit of the Spirit in people's lives as the Church is transformed more fully into the likeness of Christ even in the midst of conflict. Working alongside passionate and talented colleagues, the Manager will have the chance to grow professionally and personally as he/she undertakes purposeful work for God's Kingdom.
AREAS OF RESPONSIBILITY
The Manager will work closely with the Vice President ("VP") of Marketing and Communications and the Vice President of Partnerships to develop, lead, and execute a wide range of strategies to reach key audiences. The Manager will collaborate with internal teams to understand business and missional objectives and create collateral (in digital and print) to meet those objectives.
These priorities will be achieved through the following activities:
