We are looking to hire a new Assistant Rabbi. The position is full-time. The successful rabbinic candidate will be a dynamic team player, with demonstrated skill in creating vital relationships and strong congregational participation, blending tradition with modern liberalism in religious services, congregational activities and pastoral roles. The candidate would work closely with our other clergy (the Senior Rabbi and Cantor), along with educational professionals in our religious school, pre- school and our teen programming. The candidate should be comfortable working in areas of education for learners of all ages, B’nai Mitzvah preparation, social action, service-leading, and pastoral work. Most importantly, the successful candidate will serve as an active partner of a dynamic clergy team, responsible for his or her portfolio but collaborating in responsibilities.
We seek a proven inspirational and motivational leader whose creative approaches and practices have combined traditional and contemporary motifs and modalities to:
Foster a strong sense of community for the congregation as a whole and for peer groups.
Offer participatory religious services that draw growing levels of attendance.
Supply pastoral care and congregational counseling as needed.
Effectuate congregation-wide awareness of, and action in response to, global, national and local societal issues.
Provide rabbinic contribution at all levels of educational activity within the congregation.
Unambiguously and affirmatively welcome all who seek to share, explore, establish or maintain Jewish experiences.
