1. Venue & Facility Scouting
Local Space Research: Identify prospective gathering locations across Reading, PA and surrounding areas (auditoriums, school gyms/cafeterias, community halls, civic centers, event venues).
Initial Outreach & Inquiries: Contact property managers and venue administrators to gather key information: rental pricing structures, booking availability, capacity limits, parking access, and AV/technical infrastructure.
Site Visits & Walkthroughs: Schedule and attend on-site walkthroughs (either independently or alongside pastoral leadership) to take photos, evaluate room flow, and assess accessibility.
Findings Briefs & Leadership Reports: Prepare clear, concise summary briefs detailing options, pros/cons, and baseline pricing for the pastoral team and Board of Directors.
CFO Hand-off: Coordinate closely with the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) by handing off initial rate and term data so church leadership can manage formal price negotiations, lease terms, and contract execution.
Location Scouting for Public Campaigns
- Scout high-foot-traffic parks, recreational centers, and public plazas in Reading suitable for pop-up outreach and community campaigning.
- Permits & Municipal Coordination: Research and assist with necessary park and event permits through the City of Reading Parks & Recreation or municipal offices.
- Pop-Up Setup & Logistics: Coordinate the physical presence kit (branded pop-up tents, tables, banners, promotional materials, free water/coffee stations, prayer and connection tables).
- Volunteer Team Alignment: Collaborate with the Operations Pastor and Volunteer Onboarding Coordinator to organize serving schedules, ensure volunteer coverage, and make sure team members are equipped with materials and clear instructions.
- Community Engagement: Foster a welcoming, non-intimidating, and hospitable environment that represents Greater IMPACT Church with warmth, excellence, and Christ-like love.
Proximity Requirement
- **Must reside within 10 miles of Reading, PA** to facilitate local venue site visits, city permitting coordination, and on-the-ground outreach events.
- Proactive Initiative & Communication: Confident picking up the phone, sending professional emails, and building rapport with venue directors, local officials, and community members.
- Strong Organization & Attention to Detail: Capable of tracking multiple venue leads, taking thorough notes, capturing photos/specs, and keeping leadership updated in a timely manner.
- Collaborative Spirit: Enjoys working closely with pastoral leadership and operations, with clear understanding of role boundaries (scouting and relationship-building vs. formal financial/contractual negotiation).
- Hospitality & Heart for People: A warm, approachable personality who loves being outdoors, interacting with neighbors, and introducing people to Jesus and church community.
- Spiritual Maturity & Alignment: A living relationship with Jesus Christ, personal integrity, and alignment with the mission, vision, and core values of Greater IMPACT Church.
- Time Commitment: Ability to commit approximately 4–6 flexible hours per week on a hybrid basis (combining weekend/weekday on-site visits with flexible remote administrative work).
