Associate Minister – Youth, Young Adults & Creative
Full-time | Devonport Church of Christ | Tasmania
Come to Devonport. Put down roots. Make disciples. Help shape the future.
The opportunity
Your primary focus will be discipling and developing teenagers and young adults.
We don’t want to simply run good youth programs. We want to see young people encounter Jesus, develop a deep faith, discover their calling, serve others and become disciple-makers.
You will have the opportunity to:
- Build genuine relationships with teenagers and young adults.
- Develop a strong culture of discipleship rather than simply programming.
- Identify, equip and release emerging young leaders.
- Develop pathways from youth into young adulthood and meaningful participation in the wider church.
- Partner with parents and families.
- Develop youth and young adult leaders and volunteers.
- Teach, preach and lead worship and discipleship environments.
- Create opportunities for mission, service, community and spiritual formation.
- Provide leadership to our creative and communications ministry.
- Help develop a creative culture that communicates the gospel and tells the stories of what God is doing.
- Contribute to the broader pastoral life and ministry of Devonport Church of Christ.
An opportunity to grow as a pastoral leader
There is another important dimension to this role.
We are not simply looking for someone to manage a ministry.

You will work closely with our Senior Pastor, receiving mentoring, coaching and increasing exposure to broader pastoral leadership.
This will include opportunities to grow in:
- Preaching and teaching
- Pastoral leadership
- Discipleship and spiritual formation
- Leadership development
- Strategic thinking
- Team leadership
- Pastoral care
- Church-wide ministry
- Vision and culture
