Description
As a Data Lead, you are an integral member of the Innovation team. The Data Lead is responsible for working with ministry leaders, volunteers and staff to ensure that our church database is an accurate and user-friendly tool to enable successful ministry at all locations, while also initiating and maintaining best practices throughout Connection Pointe. The Data Lead will also help create and maintain data and workflow solutions and automations, allowing our ministry teams to work more effectively in ministry.

Who We Are
Our Connection Pointe Staff Team is a unified group of imperfect people who tirelessly work to connect people to a saving relationship with Jesus and life changing relationships with each other. As individuals we have a personal relationship with Christ and are committed to the vision of Connection Pointe Christian Church.

How We Lead

We give ministry away: as staff we are always looking for faithful volunteers who can step up into roles that allow us to expand and replicate ourselves. We look for leaders who can lead leaders.
We work hard and prioritize our families: with the exception of Easter, Christmas and other “all hands” pushes, we work 5 days a week and have an extended two-day sabbath from Friday through Saturday for weekend required employees that allows us to leave work at work and be with our families.
We are always improving: we seek new ways of connecting people to Jesus and each other. We are always asking “How could we make this experience or environment better?”
We are customer first: we seek world class customer experiences that meet people in their mess and surpass expectations.
We find a way: we cut through red tape, relentlessly seeking to serve the people in our care with grace, perseverance and courage. There is always a way, we just have to find it.
We assume the best and fight for unity
