About Greater IMPACT Church

Greater IMPACT Church is a Christ-centered, digital-first ministry on a mission to share the love, truth, and transforming power of Jesus Christ. Operating with a global digital reach alongside expanding local community initiatives in the Greater Reading area, we leverage social media, digital storytelling, and creative content to connect with people throughout their everyday week. We are seeking a creative, organized, and digitally savvy Social Media Coordinator to steward our social platforms.

Role Overview

The Social Media Coordinator serves as the connective tissue between our visual content and our growing digital community. Working hand-in-hand with our Video Editor and communications team, you will take sermon clips, short-form reels, event promos, and graphic quotes and package them into engaging, high-impact social posts across Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and YouTube Community.

Beyond scheduling posts, you will actively foster two-way conversations: answering comments, celebrating life updates with followers, monitoring DMs, and ensuring that our social feeds aren't just an announcement board, but an inspiring ministry touchpoint Monday through Saturday.

Scope of Service & Key Responsibilities

Weekly Content Planning & Scheduling: Maintain the church's weekly social media content calendar, scheduling posts across Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and YouTube Community using scheduling tools (e.g., Meta Business Suite, Later, Buffer).

Copywriting & Caption Strategy: Craft engaging, hook-driven captions, relevant Scripture references, calls to action, and effective hashtag strategies that encourage saves, shares, and comments.

Content Collaboration: Partner closely with the Video Editor and Graphic Designer to receive polished reels, vertical clips, and visual assets, ensuring optimal formatting for each platform.

Story & Real-Time Engagement: Post interactive Instagram and Facebook Stories throughout the week (polls, sermon reflections, prayer prompts, countdowns to Sunday).

Community Management: Monitor post comments and direct messages (DMs) with warmth and promptness, answering logistical questions and routing prayer requests or pastoral care needs to church leadership.

Platform Trends & Insights: Stay current on evolving social media trends, trending audio, and algorithm best practices to continually increase the ministry's organic reach.

Qualifications & Requirements

Social Media Experience: Demonstrated experience managing or curating active social media accounts (Instagram, TikTok, Facebook) with an eye for clean aesthetics and engaging copywriting.

Creative Writing & Storytelling: Strong written communication skills with the ability to articulate theological and inspirational concepts in concise, relatable language.

Organizational Skills: Self-motivated and dependable in scheduling posts ahead of time and maintaining consistent weekly delivery.

Heart for Kingdom Ministry: A personal relationship with Jesus Christ and a passion for redeeming digital media to point people to the Gospel.

Time Commitment: Ability to commit approximately 4–6 flexible hours per week on a remote schedule.
