Seeking Applications for Eastern Synod Secretary and Treasurer

The Eastern Synod Council is currently seeking applications for two key leadership positions that will become available in mid-2024: secretary and treasurer. Working in partnership with the bishop and vice-chair, the secretary and treasurer serve as officers of the Eastern Synod and the Synod Council. Both of these positions are available to rostered ministers and lay people, and are for a six year term, beginning June 2024 and ending in June 2030. The two successful applicants will have an opportunity to ‘job shadow’ until June 2024.

Details, including responsibilities, skills, time commitment and remuneration, associated with each of these roles are available through the following links:

Applications will be held in confidence for review and follow up by the synod council’s Personnel Committee. The committee will make nominee recommendations to Synod council. Both roles are by nomination of the Synod Council and will be recommended for election at the synod assembly in June 2024.

For further information about these opportunities, feel free to contact: Vice-Chair, Laurie Knott (lknott@elcic.ca) (chair, Personnel Committee) Incumbent Secretary, Rev. Wendell Caron Grahlman (wgrahlman@elcic.ca), or Incumbent Treasurer, Keith Myra (kmyra@elcic.ca).

Applications will be accepted until June 30th , 2022. To maximize the period available for job shadowing, Synod Council intends to make its nominations at its next meeting in November.
