Day-to-Day

We operate a Sunday‑Thursday work environment. Monday‑Thursday we’re in the office (8:30 AM – 5:00 PM); on Sunday we support the weekend worship experience either directly in our roles or by choosing a weekly serving opportunity at one of our Elevation Church campuses. The pace is fast, and we often pivot strategies or projects quickly to meet weekend needs. While we work hard, we also play hard—our creative staff enjoys plenty of fun activities in the office. Professional development is abundant, both structured and informal. We expect disciplined spiritual practices: regular Bible reading, prayer, and applying the weekly sermon. Bring your full self to every project, conversation, and initiative.

Schedule

Sunday‑Thursday work week. Office hours Monday‑Thursday 8:30 AM – 5:00 PM; Sunday dedicated to supporting the worship experience.
