These are coordinated by a volunteer Management Team consisting of people with responsibilities in eleven areas: Site; Stewarding/Health & Safety; Prayer Ministry; Accessibility; Mission; Media; Finance; Seminars; Youth and Children’s Programme; Technical and Hospitality.
The Operations Manager leads the Management Team under the guidance of the Board, which sets the vision for the event and shapes its outworking each year. The main responsibility of the role is to ensure that the team of volunteers who serve in New Horizon can deliver the event safely and with excellence to the glory of God and in service of others. An administrator employed on a part-time basis to run the New Horizon office reports to the Operations Manager.
The working patterns for this role must be flexible given the nature of the New Horizon event. On average the role requires 10 hours per week with some hours necessarily being during normal working hours and others in evenings and at weekends.
