The Community Church of New York, located in the Murray Hill section of Manhattan, is a multiracial, multicultural, multigenerational Unitarian Universalist congregation grounded in progressive values and inspired by history.

Living on a fragile planet in a vulnerable time for our nation, Community Church is a hub for active citizenship and the building and nurturing of authentic spirituality in community. Thinking of ourselves as a 200-year-old start-up, Community Church has the advantage of age and the relevance brought on by generative, out-of-the-box thinking.

Director of Communnity Engagement

Our Director of Community Engagement will be a kind, generous presence in our congregation, committed to building and retaining our membership through relationships and program development. Working as a member of our staff team, this person will accompany people from their first encounter with the church into congregational integration, designing and implementing programs that keep congregants connected with one another. They will also embed in our local neighborhood through partnerships with existing organizations, ensuring our presence in the larger community.

The ideal candidate will be extroverted, organized, and will work well in community. They will also be familiar with Planning Center and/or Realm, or be willing to learn. They do not have to be Unitarian Universalist, but should be familiar with and in general agreement with our core values of pluralism, generosity, justice, transformation, interdependence, and equity, with Love at the center of all we do.
