ASSISTANT CHIEF OF LEADERSHIP FORMATION

Brief

Description:

The Executive Assistant and Operations Coordinator (“EA & Ops Coordinator”) is a versatile operational linchpin for the central leadership and support team of the Leadership Formation Division (LFD), particularly the Chief of Leadership Formation, Dr. Kara Powell. This role blends executive assistance, Hub Spot administrative support, business administration, and project management to ensure that the daily operations, communications, and executive workflows of LFD leadership are handled with precision and care.

Serving Dr. Powell in particular, and the full central leadership team more broadly, the EA & Ops Coordinator manages scheduling and administration, financial reclassifications and tracking, and managing various SST projects. A central part of the role is administrative support for LFD’s enterprise Hub Spot account, which supports sales and marketing across multiple centers, helping keep it clean, consistent, and well‑maintained.

Acting as a proactive problem‑solver, the EA & Ops Coordinator builds and optimizes the systems, templates, and processes that keep the SST organized, responsive, and focused on its strategic priorities. The ideal candidate is a generalist who thrives on variety and brings a blend of administrative, financial, and project management skill, along with an understanding of ministry contexts. This position is remote, with an expectation to travel to Pasadena once or twice per year for in‑person gatherings, with the potential for one to two additional instances of event‑related travel, upon request.

About the Leadership Formation Division:

The Leadership Formation Division (LFD) at Fuller Theological Seminary consists of five Centers (Center for Spiritual Formation, Church Planting Initiative, De Pree Center, Fuller Youth Institute, and Thrive Center), the TENx
10 Collaboration, and FULLER Equip (an online non‑degree training platform for Christian leaders) that collectively provide research‑based resources and training to those who want to learn from Fuller but are not currently pursuing a degree. Collectively, LFD serves approximately 250,000 learners per year and has approximately 80 full‑time staff. The Strategic Support Team (SST) serves as the central team providing strategy and expertise support in key areas for LFD, particularly in marketing, sales and partnerships, fund development, and connection to the larger Fuller ecosystem.
