The Operations Director will be pivotal in developing and expanding services while maintaining stability within FGC. There is room for innovation and a strong foundation to build upon.
This is an excellent opportunity to develop a new position, create your team, and grow a ministry with massive potential to serve ministries globally.
Friends of the Great Commission (FGC) is a registered charity with a team of skilled administrative and accounting personnel dedicated to using their talents and expertise to enable people to follow God’s calling to fulfill the Great Commission of Jesus Christ.
FGC works exclusively with Christian ministries and ministry projects in a dynamic cooperative relationship. Ministries engage in outreach activities and provide personnel on the mission field, while FGC provides essential administrative and accounting expertise. FGC relieves much of the administrative burden all charities must manage, enabling our partners to focus on the ministry work to which God has called them. It is a team effort working towards common charitable goals: the advancement of the Christian faith, the furtherance of education, and the relief of poverty.
The new Operations Director is responsible for providing overall direction and execution of the FGC accounting services for US-based FGC ministries. The role is a combination of operational leadership and accounting. The Operations Director will manage outsourced accounting processes while also providing direct accounting/financial management for FGC partners/clients.
The Operations Director preferably works primarily at the FGC offices, Monday through Friday, during business hours, 40+ hours a week. Remote work is possible with the expectation that the Operations Director will spend time in Colorado Springs for initial training, then likely quarterly, if not at least bi-annually thereafter.
