WEC International are looking for someone to oversee the use of Microsoft Office365 software across our branches in many countries. Get involved in remotely troubleshooting issues for our members on mission locations, so that they can continue their work uninterrupted.

While we value teamwork, particularly on larger projects, international time zone differences and varied work hours and schedules hinder collaboration with our other IT workers around the world.

You enjoy working independently, and researching and recommending industry best practices, and want to see how the Lord can use the best technologies available for the gospel.

Qualities & Gifts Sought

You have experience with Office365 related technologies such as administration of Users and Groups, Exchange, Teams and SharePoint.

If you also have experience with Entra Azure (Active Directory, Intune, network & security policies, etc) and Power Apps, that is an advantage.

You are a fluent English speaker, and recognise the need for your team to pray for each other and those you are serving. You want to use your IT knowledge for the Kingdom of God.

WEC's ministries in the UK

WEC’s primary goal is to take the gospel to the least-reached peoples of the world, and to see churches planted and growing among them.

• Encourage and stimulate prayer for cross-cultural mission around the world, accurately researching the whole mission scene through the Operation World team;

• Partner with churches all over the UK and Ireland to mobilise their congregations into cross-cultural ministry;

• Offer opportunities for short-term cross-cultural missions exposure and pass on the vision;

• Minister to those who suffer from drug and alcohol addictions and plant churches among them through Betel’s teams;

• Train and produce media broadcast content through our Radio Worldwide ministry;

• Work with schools and churches to run children’s programmes and youth camps aiming to bring children to faith and to educate them about their potential to influence God’s world;

• Publish prayer bulletins and magazines about WEC's work, Bible Study materials, and our website and social media to share the vision of mission;

• Host and organise events and courses (both online and in-person) for those wishing to explore God’s call to cross-cultural work or to pray for mission.
