Ministry Executive Assistant

Executive Assistant to the Founder

A Faithful, Teachable, Mission-Driven Support Role at Seeds Wilderness Way

Seeds Wilderness Way is a Christ-centered, non-profit ministry that walks with families and teens through seasons of emotional, spiritual, and relational brokenness. Through the wilderness and the truth of the Gospel, we've seen healing that only Jesus can bring—transforming not only students, but entire family systems. As the Lord continues to expand our reach and impact, we are seeking a faithful, teachable partner to walk closely with our Founder and help build the administrative and operational support needed for this growing ministry.

This is not just a job—it's a calling. We're looking for someone who is personally committed to Christ, deeply aligned with our mission, and willing to serve with patience, flexibility, and a humble spirit.

• Detail-Oriented
• Faithful
• Available
• Teachable
• Adaptable
• Mission-Driven

As the Executive Assistant to the Founder, you will be entrusted with high-level support that helps turn vision into reality, brings order to operations, and ensures the Founder is free to lead, shepherd, and disciple. You will play a critical role in the day-to-day rhythms of the ministry, handling a blend of administrative, communication, and project-support tasks with excellence, discernment, and spiritual maturity.

Support the Founder Personally and Professionally

• Steward the Founder's calendar, meetings, appointments, and travel with a heart of service and attention to detail
• Provide thoughtful, Spirit-led communication support—including drafting emails, updates, and correspondence on behalf of the Founder
• Serve as a steady, trustworthy presence who helps carry the practical weight of ministry

Provide Project and Task Support

• Work closely with the Founder to break vision into clear tasks, next steps, and timelines. Consider this task as processing, note taking, and writing out the message rather than coming up with individual tasks on your own. (The EA is the "ear" of the Director, the hands and feet, the messenger…. But not the COO or a departmental manager who would be responsible for implementing or overseeing the task.)
• Maintain project boards and task lists (e.g., Basecamp) to ensure clarity and follow-through
• Keep the Founder informed of deadlines, priorities, and upcoming needs

Handle Administrative Tasks with Excellence

• Track receipts and prepare financial information for bookkeeping or finance support
• Keep digital and physical files organized, up-to-date, and compliant
• Assist with routine paperwork for students, staff, and families as directed

Support Donor and Partner Care

• Help steward relationships by preparing thank-you notes, updates, and donor communication drafts
• Assist with planning and coordinating meetings, small gatherings, or ministry events
• Maintain organized records of donor interactions and communication touchpoints

This Role Could Grow With You

This position has the potential to grow into a broader full time or operational support role for someone who proves faithful, dependable, and aligned with the heart of Seeds. Growth here isn't about chasing a title—it's about long-term fruitfulness, relational trust, and shared mission.

You might be a great fit if you have:

• A love for Jesus and a life lived in alignment with His Word and Spirit
• At least 1 year of experience in a professional office, administrative, or communications role
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Strong organizational and problem-solving abilities, with a high level of attention to detail
• The ability to work both autonomously and collaboratively
• Experience in expedition-based roles is helpful, but not required
• You live near Montrose, CO or are willing to relocate
