Needed: Regional Centre Managers

Regional Centres play a vital role in the Bible translation efforts in PNG!

We were very encouraged and blessed by the regional centre that we used as we went in and out of the village. Not only did we have a comfortable place to sleep but the centre managers encouraged us and offered their support through shopping, transportation and weekly conversations on the radio. I really can't imagine doing the work without their help. 

Due to the importance of the regional offices for the work in each region, keeping these  centres up and running is critical.  If there isn't anyone available to serve as a manager in any of the 8 regional centres, Bible translators are often asked to fill in until someone else can take over the duties.

         There are 8 Regional Centres. #7 is the Pacific Orientation Course

Each Regional Centre has an office, a home for the centre manager and family, a workshop meeting room and several fully furnished duplexes for guests and workshop participants.

The type of person we are looking for has the following qualities:
-A servant heart, including the willingness to do a variety of jobs.
-Flexibility
-Excited by challenges
-Basic business and management skills
-An ability to appreciate and work in a multi-national atmosphere.
-The willingness to build a team of prayer and financial partners

Responsibilities:
-Shopping for translators
-Radio Skeds
-Airport pickups
-Maintaining the center
-Managing staff
-and more...lots of variety!
