Job Overview

Our mission is to train pastors for the global church with a particular emphasis on serving indigenous church networks in regions around the world where Biblical, theological and ministry training are not otherwise accessible.

Carey is looking for a mission hearted regional director of training to help oversee our pastoral training centers on either the African or Asian continent. The position will be based in North America and requires 4-5 international trips each year. We are looking Biblically qualified, academically credentialed men (MDiv or above), who have 10 years or more Pastoral experience. When not teaching in the field you would be engaged in curriculum development and writing projects for Carey as well as in representing the organization throughout your region. We are Reformed in our theology, upholding the five "Solas," and subscribe to the 1689 Second London Baptist Confession of Faith, but also welcome similarly convicted brothers to participate in this exciting ministry.

In this role you will be required to develop your own personal support network. Since this is a support raised role, it would be a good fit for a returning missionary who is looking to continue to engage in field ministry while also serving as part of USA or Canada based team, or an experienced pastor with international travel and support raising experience.
