Salary Range: $25.00 To $28.00 Hourly

Bethel's mission is revival—the personal, regional, and global expansion of God's Kingdom through His manifest presence. Every department within Bethel exists to advance this mission by equipping people to encounter God and carry His presence to the world. Within Bethel Missions, we exist to ignite a fresh Moravian-like movement of believers who carry the gospel into the darkest and least-reached places of the earth.

We are passionate about raising, equipping, and sending revivalists who demonstrate the love and power of Jesus among the nations. The BSSM Missions Manager provides strategic leadership and operational oversight for all BSSM Short-Term Missions programs. This role is responsible for leading the planning, execution, and continual improvement of mission experiences that equip and mobilize students into global ministry. The BSSM Missions Manager oversees departmental systems, manages staff, develops leaders, coordinates international logistics, and partners with internal departments and global ministry partners to successfully send around 1,000 students and nearly 100 Trip Leaders to nearly 25 nations annually.

This position combines leadership, operations, project management, financial stewardship, and pastoral care. The ideal candidate is an experienced leader who thrives in complex environments, develops healthy systems, builds strong teams, and cares a heart to see students transformed through missions. This role is designed with AI-assisted administrative support in mind, freeing the Missions Manager to focus on strategic leadership, relational discipleship, and the complex human judgment calls that AI cannot replace.
