Identify musical issues and provide clear, constructive coaching and correction.
Develop musicians and help maintain a consistent standard of musical excellence.
Assist with auditions and evaluating musicians' readiness to serve.
Foster a culture of preparation, teamwork, accountability, excellence, and spiritual maturity.
Collaborate effectively with the Creative Arts Director and other ministry teams.

Leadership & Ministry Expectations

Demonstrate strong leadership, communication, organization, and follow-through.
Lead confidently while remaining teachable and responsive to ministry leadership.
Provide coaching and correction with clarity, patience, and respect.
Demonstrate dependability, punctuality, preparation, and professionalism.
Maintain a team-first, ministry-minded approach rather than an individual performance mindset.
Demonstrate a growing relationship with Jesus Christ and a lifestyle consistent with biblical Christian values.
Support the mission, vision, leadership, and culture of the church.
Demonstrate spiritual maturity, humility, integrity, discretion, and a servant's heart.
Understand that worship ministry is ministry first and music second.

Qualifications

Previous experience as a Music Director, Band Leader, Lead Musician, or similar role preferred.
Church or worship ministry experience strongly preferred.
Demonstrated ability to lead musicians and rehearsals.
Strong knowledge of contemporary worship, gospel, and other musical styles relevant to the church's worship expression.
