DENOMINATION: The Presbyterian Church in America
WEEKLY ATTENDANCE: 500 - 600
THE ROLE: The New City Church Worship Director is responsible for shepherding the flock by equipping a team of worship leaders to lead us in authentic worship and excellence. 

New City Church is a ten year old church planted in the heart of Gwinnett County, just outside of Atlanta, Georgia. We have grown from a handful of folks meeting in the pastor's living room, to a vibrant church plant gathering in a middle school gymnasium, to a fully established church in our own facility for more than three years. The PCA is our denominational home.

The vision of NCC is to live as the family of God, together proclaiming and demonstrating the gospel of grace to one another and our city. Worship is an essential aspect to our vision to live as the family of God and our mission to make, mature, and multiply disciplemakers. Our deepest desire is for our corporate worship gatherings to flow out of a personal life of worship and service to our King, Jesus Christ.

We are seeking to hire a full-time Worship Director to minister alongside of us during an exciting season of expansion and growth and beyond. The Worship Director will report directly to the Lead Pastor. This role will contribute to the implementation of the vision of New City Church by organizing and facilitating corporate worship gatherings, in collaboration with the Creative & Liturgy Team and Technical Director. This will include the development and equipping of a team of talented musicians and worship leaders.

We believe that a community of worshippers of Jesus is at the very heart of who God is calling us to be at New City Church. The mission of cultivating this community is accomplished through a three-pronged focus:

• Leading worship with excellence
• Discipling teams with care
• Scaling the ministry to meet the demands of a growing congregation
