  • Own W-9 collection and 1099 preparation to keep us compliant year-round
  • Collaborate with the Credit Card Program Administrator to provide support.

  • Partner with ministry leaders across campuses to keep their vendors paid on time
  • Support the month-end and year-end close by delivering timely, accurate AP reports to the Finance team

  • There’s a lot to accomplish each week, so we’re pretty fast-paced. We’re also not afraid to pivot a strategy or project quickly to meet the needs of the weekend - adaptability is a key competence for us.
  • Yes, we work hard. But we’re good at playing hard, too. We’re a creative staff, so there’s no shortage of activities around our offices to have some fun!
  • You can’t help but grow on our staff. You’ll be around some incredible people. Professional development opportunities will be all around you, both in structured and unstructured ways.
