This isn’t just a job—it’s a calling. This role exists to help people advance in their journey with Christ in Tulsa, America, and the World. Whether you're leading teams, crafting meaningful experiences, or working behind the scenes, your role at BattleCreek Church makes an eternal impact!

The Campus Pastor is the spiritual and strategic leader of a BattleCreek Church campus, responsible for creating a healthy, thriving ministry environment where people can take next steps in their journeys with Christ. This role combines pastoral leadership, team development, and operational oversight to ensure the campus is aligned with the mission, vision, and values of BattleCreek Church. By shepherding people, developing leaders, and leading the campus with excellence, the Campus Pastor helps glorify God by creating opportunities for all people, all ages, all the time to advance in their journey with Christ.

While each BattleCreek campus has its own unique rhythms and needs, the role of the Campus Pastor remains centered on three key areas of leadership: pastoral care, operational awareness, and team building and vision casting. 

• Provide spiritual and organizational leadership by leading a team of ministry leaders and shepherding both staff and the congregation to take next steps in their journeys with Christ 

• Serve as the primary Sunday communicator on stage for the campus, including announcements, giving, prayer, and call to salvation 

• Teach approximately 2-5 times per year with additional teaching opportunities at campus events and special gatherings

• Responsible for the leadership and development of ministry staff, fostering spiritual growth, leadership capacity, and ministry effectiveness through intentional mentoring and encouragement 

• Cultivate team culture by providing clear expectations, consistent coaching, performance conversations, and support for personal and spiritual growth

• Translate church-wide vision into actionable campus initiatives, equipping staff and ministry leaders to implement strategies that support the mission of helping people advance in their journeys with Christ

• Partner with church leadership and central support teams to ensure ministries are aligned, resources are leveraged effectively, and standards of excellence are consistently upheld across each campus

• Responsible for stewardship of campus budgets to align financial resources with strategic priorities of BattleCreek Church and its mission

• Establish clear, mission-driven goals for the campus and ministry teams, providing direction, accountability, and measurable outcomes that advance the church's mission 

• Demonstrate a working knowledge of employment practices and organizational policies, partnering with Human Resources to make informed decisions, foster a healthy work environment, and help minimize organizational risk

The must-haves for this role:

Depending on the role, you might find yourself in an office, on stage, out in the community, or working behind the scenes. Evening and weekend hours may be required—it’s all part of ministry life!

This role is primarily office-based but may involve some physical activity, including standing, lifting (up to 20 pounds), kneeling, setting up equipment, or prepping for events—sometimes even late at night. Don’t worry; we’ll ensure you know what to expect!
