Worship Director (Part-Time)
Trinity Evangelical Church — North Reading, MA
20 hours/week | $25–$35/hour, based on experience | Reports to the Lead Pastor
Trinity is a gospel-centered, non-denominational church north of Boston. For more than 200 years we have existed to help people become rooted in Jesus, grow together, and serve our community. We typically gather in two Sunday services (one service in summer) and live-stream as well. Learn more at trinitynr.org and watch a recent service on our YouTube channel.
We are looking for a Worship Director who loves Jesus, loves the church, and can gather a volunteer team to lead the congregation in theologically rich, heartfelt worship—modern songs and hymns, across generations.
This role is a good fit if you
- Have a growing relationship with Christ and can gladly affirm Trinity’s Statement of Faith
- Have led worship in a church setting and can lead vocally plus at least one instrument
- Build people, not just set lists—recruiting, scheduling, rehearsing, and shepherding volunteers
- Plan services with the Lead Pastor so the music serves the Word
- Are organized (we use Planning Center) and can work both independently and on a small staff
- Care about kids and students having a voice in worship, without owning those ministries alone
Core responsibilities (20 hrs/week)
- Plan and lead the musical portion of weekly and special services
- Recruit, schedule, train, and care for worship-team volunteers
- Build a healthy, multigenerational volunteer culture and develop future leaders
- Steward church instruments and a modest ministry budget
- Attend staff meetings and collaborate with pastors and ministry leaders
What success looks like
Faithful Sunday leadership, a growing and cared-for volunteer team, alignment with Trinity’s mission, and a collaborative relationship with staff and elders.
Compensation
$25.00–$35.00 per hour for 20 hours per week, depending on experience and qualifications. This is a part-time ministry staff role.
