THE REAL HOPE OF JESUS CAN CHANGE THE WORLD.

The university is a crucial mission field. We’re looking for those who can lead, take initiative, and love this mission field well.

Why join InterVarsity staff?

There are 1.2 million college students in NY & NJ. Each one is loved by God, and too few of them know it. The harvest is plentiful, and the laborers are few. 

Ministry Opportunity

InterVarsity in NY & NJ is hiring residents for a one-year, full-time, paid position where you will be trained and equipped to do the job of a Campus Staff Minister.

The Ministry Residency is designed to give you the best possible exposure to the work of InterVarsity on campus, to “try on” the job, receive ministry training, and discern if this work is something that God might be inviting you to long-term.

Benefits

  • Skill development for campus ministry and professional work, including:

  • Fundraising training & experience

  • Networking and recruitment skills

  • Practice with goal setting, coaching and accountability

  • Spiritual formation

    for yourself and for students

  • Leadership development

    for yourself and students

We are looking for people who are passionate about inviting students and faculty in every corner of every campus in NY & NJ to follow Jesus. We hire team players - people who are: humble (teachable and obedient to Jesus), hungry (passionate about the mission and hard-working) and people-smart (people-oriented: warm and welcoming). Sound like you? Apply for the Regional Residency!

Ben McGowan, Campus Ministry Intern ‘24

“I love being part of a work environment where God gets the glory and we get the joy of knowing Him. To think that the work I do has students falling deeper in love with the God who loves them makes everything I do that much more worth it because I know it has an eternal impact.”
