This full-time position includes Middle School EDGE Nights (catechesis and relational ministry), some High School Life Nights (regular involvement on the High School Core Team can be considered), retreats, outreach activities, prayer and worship, social gatherings, and other youth nights/events. The position also provides support to ensure best practices in the transition from Middle School to High School. The Associate Youth Advocate works under the direct supervision of the Youth Advocate and will closely collaborate and be mentored by that position, while also collaborating with the Associate Youth and Pastoral Advocate (three-person team approach).

The candidate should have fantastic organizational skills, be a proactive self-started idea person who enjoys collaborating with the team while identifying and anticipating upcoming needs, exemplifies strong computer skills (Word, Excel, Canva, Publisher, Outlook, Windows) and the ability to communicate effectively with other staff, parents, teens, and others who contact the Youth Ministry Team.
