# Church and ministry jobs

> Find paid roles and recruit for churches, ministries and related Christian organizations.

> [!NOTE]
>
> The Jobs marketplace is being prepared for its pilot. Availability depends on
> the Jobs rollout. External applications are available where the marketplace is
> enabled. Private applications and résumé uploads have their own rollout
> controls and appear only when enabled for the service. Paid features remain
> unavailable until their separate commercial rollout.

## Find an opportunity

Browse church, ministry, Christian nonprofit, school and mission opportunities
on **TheFaithApp Jobs**. Filter by role, organization type, location, employment
arrangement or remote eligibility. Read the actual work location and eligible
countries before applying; “remote” does not always mean worldwide.

Use **Faith tradition** to match the tradition stated by an employer. Updating
your filters or changing the search text keeps your other choices and sort order;
use **Clear all** to start again.

Worldwide listings are supported. Use the country or territory, city and remote
eligibility filters to find relevant roles. A vacancy’s location determines where
the work can take place; the marketplace’s global reach does not imply visa
sponsorship or worldwide remote eligibility.

Each vacancy shows its employer, role details, compensation when disclosed and
application deadline. **Apply on employer website** takes you to that employer’s
application page. **Apply on Jobs**, where available, opens a private application
for that vacancy. Hiring decisions are handled by the employer. A closed role no
longer offers an Apply action.

An organization verification badge means its identity and posting authority have
been checked. It is not a safeguarding clearance or a guarantee of a job. Use
**Report a concern with this listing** for a suspicious employer, misleading information or a
broken application link. Do not include identity documents or financial details.

## Save roles and receive alerts privately

Create a Jobs account using a verified email or Google sign-in. Account holders
must be at least 18 and accept the current Jobs terms. Browsing and external
applications do not require an account.

* Save a role to return to it from **Saved roles**.
* Create a daily or weekly alert using your chosen filters and timezone.
* Confirm the alert using the email we send. It is not active until confirmed.
* Pause or remove it in **Job alerts**, or unsubscribe from its email link.

Your church and employers cannot see your saved roles or alert subscriptions.
Creating a Jobs account does not add you to a church membership list.

## Apply privately on Jobs

When the vacancy offers **Apply on Jobs**:

1. Sign in and check your **Private candidate profile**. Add relevant experience
   and optional portfolio links; this profile is not a public directory.
2. Open the application, answer the vacancy’s questions and prepare your cover
   letter. Saved drafts are private to you.
3. If résumé uploads are enabled, choose a PDF or DOCX within the displayed
   limit. Wait until its status is **Clean** before selecting it for sharing.
   Pending, rejected or failed scans cannot be submitted or downloaded.
4. Review the exact profile, answers and selected files you will send. Confirm
   sharing with the named employer, then submit.
5. Keep the submission receipt in **My applications**. It confirms that Jobs
   stored the application; an email alone is not the receipt.

If the role, questions or your profile changed, compare the latest version before
resubmitting. A connection failure preserves your input. Do not start a new
application simply because confirmation is delayed; check **My applications**
first. One application is permitted per vacancy, including after withdrawal.

Later profile changes do not rewrite a submitted application. You can view its
candidate-visible progress or withdraw from its detail page. Withdrawal stops
employer access through Jobs, but cannot recall files an employer already
downloaded. Contact the employer about copies it holds. Your church does not see
your applications through church membership or ordinary staff permissions.

## Set up an employer

1. Sign in and open **Employer workspace**.
2. Add your organization’s name, type, website, location and public description.
3. Confirm that you are authorized to represent it.
4. Prepare a vacancy while the team checks organization identity and authority.

Use **Organization settings** to correct your profile or private recruitment
contact. Saving profile changes requires a fresh organization review. Public
visibility pauses until approval; drafts remain available.

## Prepare and publish a vacancy

1. Choose **Create vacancy** and enter a clear role title and description.
2. Choose the role category, employment type, work arrangement and location.
3. For a remote role, specify the countries where applicants are eligible.
4. Enter compensation accurately or state that it is not disclosed. Observe any
   disclosure rules that apply to the location.
5. Choose the application method. For external applications, add the employer’s
   HTTPS application page. If native applications are enabled, choose **On Jobs**
   and add only relevant screening questions; request a résumé only when uploads
   are available. Set a deadline and check the timezone and displayed UTC time.
6. Wait for **Saved privately to Jobs**, then choose **Save draft and preview**
   to review the saved version. A connection failure keeps unsaved input visible;
   a conflict asks you to compare with the latest revision.
7. Submit the saved revision for review. Submission does not make it public.
8. After organization verification and vacancy approval, publish the vacancy.

You can save an unfinished draft while entering compensation and screening
questions. Complete the salary details you choose to disclose and every question
before submitting for review. Opening a saved draft does not submit it or create
a content change by itself.

Use a role outline for a starting point, preview it and explicitly apply it to
the description. Replace its placeholders and adapt every statement to the real
role. Optional writing assistance, when shown, needs permission to send the role
facts you enter to the named provider. Do not enter applicant or private member
information. Review the suggestion before applying it. Neither action publishes
a vacancy.

Edits create a new reviewable revision. The approved published version stays live
while changed content is reviewed. When the update is approved, choose
**Publish approved update** to replace the live version. An unchanged live
revision does not need publishing again. Close a filled or withdrawn role promptly.
Roles expire at their approved deadline or the publication window. Renewal
requires you to confirm that the opportunity is still current. It uses the
approved closing time or its allowed publication window. If the approved closing
time has passed, edit and submit a new deadline for review first. Renewal does
not change the original posting date.

Use **Copy link** to copy the canonical vacancy URL, or **Share role** when your
device supports sharing. **Printable QR** opens a recruitment sheet with a QR
code. Employer activity counts application-link openings, which
can include repeat visits. It does not count completed applications or identify
viewers.

## Work with your team and church

Organization owners can invite a teammate by email, choose its role and revoke
access. The teammate signs in with the matching verified email to accept.
Share the invitation privately;
its one-time token should not be placed in public posts. Transfer ownership to an
accepted team member when responsibility changes. At least one owner must remain,
unless the organization is explicitly archived.

A church organization connection lets approved vacancies appear on the church’s
public careers page. Each card links to the complete vacancy on Jobs. Church
staff use **Hiring** in their existing dashboard. An explicit personal staff
connection and employer permission are needed for recruitment management; ordinary
church staff or membership does not automatically grant that access.

Disconnecting a church or revoking staff permissions removes the corresponding
access. It does not disclose anyone’s private job search.

## Review native applications with a search committee

Organization ownership does not automatically reveal applications. An owner
must grant named teammates access to the specific vacancy, with separate
permissions to view, manage stages or export. Fresh sign-in protects access
grants. Reviewers declare any conflict of interest before opening applications;
an unresolved conflict blocks access.

Open **Applicants** from the vacancy workspace. Authorized managers can update
stages and choose a separate candidate-visible message. A stage change does not
send private notes to a candidate. Reviewers can write their own private notes
and give independent feedback against the current interview kit; managers have
the broader committee view. Use relevant criteria and human judgment, rather
than treating the pipeline as an automated assessment.

Exports need an explicit export permission and expire quickly. Downloads recheck
current access, so a revoked assignment, withdrawn application or expired
retention window can make an earlier link unavailable. Keep downloaded copies
secure and follow your organization’s candidate notice and retention policy.
Candidate receipts and progress email, when enabled, contain minimal information.

## Choose a listing plan

Candidate access stays free. Employers can choose:

| Plan | One-time price | Listing | Featured placement |
| - | - | - | - |
| Basic | Free | One active vacancy for up to 30 days | None |
| Promoted | USD \$49 | One vacancy for 60 days | 14 days |
| Priority | USD \$99 | One vacancy for 90 days | 30 days |

All plans include the private hiring workspace, role outlines, optional reviewed
writing assistance, QR sharing and the approved church dashboard/careers connection.
Promoted and Priority include a share card and distribution through available
approved channels. Priority adds scheduled promotion. Available channels and
fulfillment progress are shown in the workspace; a waiting task is not a delivered
promotion. There is no coaching package or paid candidate directory.

For an active paid bundle, **Download current share card**, **Download PNG**
and **Download JPEG** provide the current vacancy graphic. PNG and JPEG downloads
can be uploaded to social channels. Shared vacancy links also include a branded
preview image. Closed or unavailable vacancies stop advertising an active role;
a social platform may retain an earlier cached image for some time.

Prices can be displayed before purchasing is available. When purchases are enabled,
open **Billing and credits**. An owner must grant named billing access after fresh
sign-in; ordinary employer membership does not grant it. Review the exact currency,
tax treatment, duration and purchase policy before confirming. Hosted checkout
handles card details. A return to Jobs does not prove payment: check settlement on
the existing order before starting another purchase after an uncertain response.
Jobs purchases are separate from church donations and church-management billing.

Use **Paid placements** to activate an available bundle on a current approved
vacancy. Its listing and featured windows activate together. The entire listing
window must fit the reviewed closing time; a failed activation does not spend the
bundle. Sponsored opportunities remain labeled and subject to review. Activation
preserves the original posting date and does not promise search-engine ranking,
applications or a hire. Cancellation and refund rules appear before purchase;
resolving a payment hold does not automatically reopen a vacancy.

Paying TheFaithApp churches can receive one Promoted bundle per calendar year after
an explicit grant backed by a current eligible paid-plan receipt. Renewing or
reconnecting the same church does not grant another benefit for that year. An earned
benefit is retained after a later plan downgrade. Ending the church plan does not
delete the standalone employer or candidate applications.

## Manage offers, checks and contracts

When these features are enabled, open the application's onboarding workspace.
Offer management, background checks and digital contracts have separate named
permissions. Ordinary organization ownership or applicant access is insufficient.

1. Prepare and review an accurate offer. The candidate separately accepts or declines
   it in their private application. Acceptance does not sign a contract, authorize
   a check or mark the candidate as hired.
2. For a background check, connect the employer's supported provider account and
   review the available package, work location, recipient and fee notice. The
   candidate makes a separate invitation choice and completes the provider's own
   authorization and information collection securely. Full reports and sensitive
   identifiers are not copied into Jobs.
3. For a digital contract, use an employer-approved PDF. Review its exact content,
   signers, signing order and charge notice before explicitly sending it. Signers
   receive the hosted signing invitation; a recruiter cannot sign for someone else.
4. Track technical progress. An uncertain send must be reconciled before another
   request is considered. An all-signed message can precede the final PDF being
   ready. Download the completed agreement and its audit trail once available.

Provider names are shown when connecting an account, consenting to data sharing or
charges, or continuing to their secure service. Background-check and signing-provider
fees are separate from listing prices. Supported locations and availability depend
on the connected account and rollout. No provider event automatically hires or
rejects someone; the employer remains responsible for decisions and required notices.

Withdrawing an application stops ordinary employer access, but does not automatically
cancel an agreement already sent. Candidates can still access their own retained
sent agreement while its separate retention and account access remain valid. Download
needed copies before the displayed retention deadline; account deletion and holds
follow the privacy notice.

## Share public roles with a network

Open **Network sharing** if your organization has management access. Choose each
available approved network separately and confirm permission after fresh sign-in.
Only current public vacancy summaries and canonical Jobs links are shared.
Applicants, résumé files and private recruitment contacts are excluded.

Stop sharing from the same page, including while new sharing is paused. Revoked,
closed and expired roles disappear from the live feed. Receiving networks must
refresh, but previously copied material may take time to disappear. Sharing roles
does not make candidate profiles searchable.

## Account privacy and support

Use **Account privacy** to download your Jobs data or request deletion. A recent
sign-in and explicit confirmation protect sensitive actions. A sole organization
owner must transfer ownership or archive the organization first. Deletion
revokes Jobs access immediately; the privacy notice explains the erasure period
and any documented retention hold.

Privacy access remains available for an existing account when ordinary
recruitment is paused, without accepting new recruitment terms. Deleting Jobs
does not delete your church membership or your sign-in provider account.

Contact **[support@thefaithapp.com](mailto:support@thefaithapp.com)** for help, a privacy request or a review of a
moderation decision. Platform operators handle verification, reports, operational
repairs and privacy holds through the existing TheFaithApp admin login.

## Prepare a social jobs roundup

Platform operators can open **Social roundups** from **Jobs moderation**. This
workspace prepares material for a person to publish on an approved social channel.

1. Choose a named social channel. Only current approved vacancies from employers
   who opted into that channel are offered.
2. Add up to ten roles and use **Move up** or **Move down** to arrange the slides.
   Add a short caption introduction and only employer-approved tags.
3. **Save draft**, then **Prepare current roundup**. Every application link is
   added to the caption. If the caption is too long for the configured channel
   limit, shorten the introduction or choose fewer roles.
4. Choose **Check and open current exports**. Review the caption and download each
   square slide as PNG or JPEG. A caption text file and a slide manifest are also
   available. Preparing or downloading does not publish anything.
5. Publish the material yourself. Before posting, check that the roles and the
   employer permissions are still current. Prepared exports require another
   check after fifteen minutes or a relevant change.
6. Enter the actual public post URL and publication time, confirm the posting,
   then choose **Record publication**. The saved record identifies the channel
   and time and is labeled as reported by the operator. It does not establish
   verified delivery, reach, applications or a hire.

Use **Reload saved roundup** to recover the latest saved version after a conflict.
This discards unsaved edits. A recorded publication cannot be edited into a new
roundup; create another draft instead. Previously downloaded or posted copies
cannot be recalled automatically when a vacancy closes or permission is revoked.
