What are the responsibilities and job description for the Director of Worship Arts & Music Ministry position at Reimagine Church?
Overview
Reimagine Church, a United Methodist congregation in Newark, Ohio, is hiring a part-time Director of Worship Arts & Music Ministry to lead our Sunday worship as well as special holiday services — by building and mentoring a team. You'll lead worship personally 2–3 Sundays a month, and spend the rest of your time recruiting, training, and scheduling a rotation of volunteers and guest musicians for the remaining Sundays.
Responsibilities
- Lead worship (vocals/instrument) approximately 2–3 Sundays per month; select music and coordinate themes with the Pastor.
- Recruit, schedule, and mentor a rotation of volunteer musicians and tech personnel to cover the remaining 1–2 Sundays per month.
- Manage the scheduling and communication for all music and tech volunteers, keeping music, slides, and tech cues organized ahead of time.
- Serve as the primary point of contact for sound, livestream, and media volunteers.
- Meet with the Pastor at 90 days and 6 months to review how the rotation is functioning and adjust as needed.
Qualifications
- Experience leading worship (vocals and/or instrument) in a church or similar setting.
- Comfortable building and mentoring a team, not just performing solo — this role is as much about developing volunteers as it is about leading from the front.
- Strong organizational skills; able to manage a rotating schedule and keep music/tech logistics on track.
- Alignment with Wesleyan theology and a collaborative working style with pastoral leadership.
- Familiarity with the Newark, Ohio / Licking County area a plus (local musicians, community, etc.).
