Outreach Specialist

Effective / Last Updated: 30 August 2023

Narrative Description: Jubilee House is a ministry of Grace Episcopal Church; the primary location for the work of this position will occur at Jubilee House. This is a grant-funded position; when grant funds cease to be available, employment will end regardless of performance evaluation. This part-time position is scheduled based on those shifts not otherwise adequately covered by volunteers and those shifts in need of a supervising staff person; therefore, this position requires a degree of schedule flexibility. The responsibilities include overseeing the day-to-day operations of Jubilee House while on duty, assisting volunteers with their duties, serving as a knowledgeable resource for volunteers, performing administrative tasks relevant to Jubilee House operations, processing material donations, light cleaning duties, and directly assisting the guests of Jubilee House. Attendance at monthly volunteer meetings, outside of the operating hours of Jubilee House, is also expected.
