Human Resources Coordinator - LifeWise Academy Support Center

About Us

Decades ago, our nation systematically removed Bible education from the public school day. LifeWise Academy is bringing it back. Under a little-known Supreme Court ruling, LifeWise empowers communities to provide Bible education for their public school students DURING SCHOOL HOURS. Tens of thousands of public school students attend LifeWise Bible classes each week.

We believe released time is the greatest missed opportunity of the church in America to reach the next generation. But we want to change that and we need your help!

About You

You love Jesus. You love kids. You love smiling. Smiling is your favorite!

As a Human Resources Coordinator, you excel in a fast-paced environment and have the willingness to adapt, grow and learn quickly. Problem solving and leveraging working relationships are key strengths you possess. You understand the importance of accuracy and integrity of human resources data. You are known for your high energy and positive attitude.

Most importantly, you know this isn't just a job. It's a chance to do something meaningful. A chance to serve others. And a chance to make a life-changing impact on students with the Gospel.
