Mountain Springs Church

Executive Pastor of Operations

Colorado Springs,
Colorado
Entry
Junior
Mid
Director
Executive
Mountain Springs Church (MSC) is seeking an experienced Executive Pastor of Operations to provide executive-level operational leadership across the life of the church and its expanding Family Restoration Center. As a church community engaging approximately 4,000 people weekly, supported by a large staff team, expansive campus, and growing restorative ministries, this role requires proven leadership in organizations of comparable scale and complexity. This role is central to operationalizing MSC’s ministry philosophy of Relate, Engage, Disciple, and Send and resides at the point where vision becomes execution. The Executive Pastor of Operations ensures integration, resourcing, and alignment across all operational areas so that the mission of the church is not only articulated, but faithfully and sustainably carried out. The Executive Pastor of Operations serves as a strategic partner to the Senior Pastor and reports directly to him. While the Senior Pastor, together with the Senior Leadership Team (SLT), holds responsibility for the spiritual vision and strategic direction of the church, the Executive Pastor of Operations leads the translation of that vision into operational strategy, systems, and execution across the organization. Serving as an equal member of the SLT, this role carries responsibility for the systems, infrastructure, and organizational alignment that enable the church and the Family Restoration Center to flourish. This role exists to ensure that growth does not outpace structure, that vision is matched by capacity, and that the mission of Mountain Springs Church is supported by healthy systems, empowered leaders, and sustainable operations. Success in this role will be evidenced by a healthy, scalable organization where leaders are empowered, systems are clear, resources are stewarded wisely, and ministry impact continues to expand without organizational strain.

About This Organization

Mountain Springs Church was founded in the mid 90s. After a few years, they acquired 18 acres where they have their current church home. In 2023, Mountain Springs purchased an additional 5 acres to continue the future expansion.

Their heart has always been to steward the land in such a way that they see lives transformed and restored not only on a weekend, but Monday through Friday. What began as a dream all those years ago to see every square inch of this acreage used to serve the city is quickly becoming a reality!

In 2022, Mountain Springs launched their Family Restoration Center which is home to the MSC Counseling Center, Fresh Start Center (a food pantry), Restoration Woodshop, and Aquaponic Garden (which fuels the Fresh Start Center with fresh produce for our community). After quickly reaching capacity of the newly built MSC Counseling Center, they completed an expansion! This expansion includes more counseling offices to meet the ever growing need for mental health in the city and a Child’s Play Therapy room.

Mountain Springs is rapidly growing and God is using them in a powerful way to reach the surrounding community and beyond. If you are looking for a healthy church that is truly reaching the city for Jesus, look no further.

Location

Life in Colorado Springs is a blend of outdoor-focused living and suburban comfort. The city sits right at the base of Pike’s Peak, part of the Rocky Mountains, so it’s very common for people to build their leisure activities around hiking, biking, and enjoying the outdoors. There are hundreds of parks, trails, and natural areas woven into everyday life. The climate is generally sunny and dry with mild winters compared to many other mountain regions, and the overall pace of life is a bit slower and less dense than a major metro area like Denver. It has a strong family-friendly and community-oriented feel, with a mix of military presence, young professionals, and long-time residents.

The church is located on the northeast side of town, an area which leans even more suburban and convenient than central Colorado Springs. This area is known for established neighborhoods mixed with newer development, easy access to shopping and dining hubs, and proximity to parks and open spaces. Colorado’s famous mountains, ski resorts, and national and state parks are easy daytrip drives from Colorado Springs.
