  • Willow Creek Community Church
  • Port Barrington, IL

Job Description

Do you love connecting people to meaningful opportunities that make a real difference? Are you energized by building systems and relationships that help others thrive? This might be the role for you.

We're looking for a Volunteer Engagement Coordinator to help mobilize and support volunteers serving through our Local Compassion & Justice initiatives. In this role, you'll play a key part in creating experiences where volunteers feel equipped, valued, and inspired-while helping deliver programs that support individuals and families working toward long-term stability.

What You'll Do
  • You'll sit at the intersection of people and process-making sure both are working at their best.
  • Lead the volunteer journey from onboarding to placement, ensuring a smooth, organized, and welcoming experience
  • Create engaging orientations and training that set volunteers up for success
  • Build relationships with volunteers, helping them find the right opportunities and stay connected
  • Coordinate and execute programs like Care Teams, Resource Days, and other community initiatives
  • Partner with staff and community organizations to expand impact and strengthen programs
  • Track participation and outcomes to continuously improve how we serve
Why This Role Matters

This isn't just about filling volunteer roles-it's about creating pathways for people to use their gifts to serve others with dignity and care. Your work will directly contribute to building stronger communities and helping people take meaningful steps forward.

Requirements

What You Bring
  • Experience coordinating volunteers, programs, or teams (church, nonprofit, or similar environment)
  • Strong organizational and project management skills-you can juggle details without losing sight of the big picture
  • Highly developed administrative skill - you love details, follow up, processes, scheduling, etc
  • A natural ability to connect with people, communicate clearly, and build trust
  • A proactive, solutions-oriented mindset-you don't wait for problems, you solve them
  • A passion for helping people and being part of work that creates meaningful, lasting impact
What We Offer

The salary range for this position is $45,000 - $62,000, depending on experience and education.

We also offer a comprehensive benefits package, including:
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • Life insurance
  • Retirement savings with company match
  • Maternity and paternity leave
  • Generous paid time off
  • Mental health counseling reimbursement
  • And more

If you're someone who enjoys both building systems and investing in people, and you want your work to have a tangible impact, we'd love to hear from you.
