PNG: 3 Critical Managerial roles need to be filled

"We (PNG Branch) are launched to do great things, and follow up great opportunities, but without the personnel, we can do nothing. The money/funding will come, but we need the people to use the money and implement the ideas.  We have a really critical shortage."   PNG Director of Language Programs and Services

I just received word from Papua New Guinea that there are 3 critical roles that support Bible translation  that need to be filled ASAP.

The first two roles are critical for the training that SIL is able to offer to national translators and these roles will be vacated in June 2011.

Training Centre Manager – responsible for managing a team of employees to maintain grounds and facilities (dormitories, classrooms, kitchen and dining room) at the Ukarumpa training centre; responsible for managing bookings of the facilities and managing the facilities budget.

Training Administrator – responsible for registering participants for courses; plus administering their funding, helping arrange travel and accommodation, purchasing and administering supplies and resources for courses.

LCORE Manager (Language, Collaboration, Opportunities, Resources, Encouragement) – responsible for LCORE facilities and for managing LCORE employees.  LCORE basically offers support to translators in technical areas and helps in managing their programs. As it says above, the LCORE manager needs very little knowledge of language work but "...we could REALLY do with a good manager / administrator for LCORE, if there is any chance of finding one!"  Academic Coordinator, PNG

Let's pray that God would fill these roles.  Would you be willing to serve?  If so,  send me an email for more information.
