TECHNICAL DIRECTOR responsibilities
-
Grace Church San Diego has been gathering people around Jesus for nearly 100 years. We're looking for a part-time Technical Director to lead audio, visual, and production for our Sunday services and church events. The goal is simple: when the tech is done well, nobody notices it. People can sing, listen, and meet Jesus without distraction. This role is about building that kind of Sunday every week, and building a volunteer team so it doesn't depend on one person.
-
Over the past 4 years, Grace has seen an increase of almost 1,000 people in Sunday attendance. God is moving at Grace Church and we are excited about who He might bring to join the team. We have created a new role of Technical Director as need has increased. Additionally, in 2027, Grace is merging with East Clairemont Church. This role will help shape production through that transition. Thank you for prayerfully considering the role.

Join Our Team

MEET GRACE CHURCH
Grace Church has served North Park and San Diego with the Gospel for over 100 years. We are passionate about the church being a family on mission with a vibrant Sunday gathering filled with missionary people making disciples and living in community during the week.
Grace San Diego was established in 1912. The church has a wonderful history which included, under the leadership of Dr. Tim LaHaye, the founding of Christian High School, Christian Heritage College (Now San Diego Christian College) and Institute for Creation Research. Grace, for several years, was known as “Scott Memorial Baptist” before the name was changed to Grace Church San Diego in 2009.
In December of 2021, Josh Martin came to Grace as the new Lead Pastor. Since then, he has collaborated with the Staff and Elder Team to implement many notable changes including the launch of House Churches, the start of Equip Classes, and a new approach to expository preaching that focuses on a single book of the Bible for an entire year.
Since 2021, our church attendance has more than doubled. Over the last few years our elders and staff have refocused the vision to: Making Resilient Disciples who reorient their lives to the way of Jesus.
We have also made major renovations to our church property as we prepare to put in a public Coffee Shop and Counseling Center that will serve our neighborhood community. Today, we continue to grow with a strong foundation on Biblical truth and a focus on being family on mission.
sunny san diego
One word: weather. San Diego is known for its warm climate that is almost always between 60-80 degrees with an average of 266 sunny days per year. With miles of beaches and bay to brag about, many forget to highlight that just 30 minutes east you can go camping in the mountains.
San Diegans love their outdoor activities year-round like hiking, surfing, biking, swimming, kayaking, fishing and more. They also love amazing, fresh food, especially Mexican. (Tip: Don’t get a burrito unless you intend to live here…you’ll never be able to eat one anywhere else again.)
Though it is a tourist town in many ways, most people who visit San Diego talk about its laid back, safe, and friendly vibe. Being one of the top destination cities for vacationing in the U.S. does have its perks with endless family-friendly attractions such as the World Famous Zoo, Sea World, Legoland, the Midway Museum, San Diego Bay, beaches, aquariums, and much more.
