ISM is pursuing unhindered access to the Bible and its life-transforming truth so every person can know Christ. Its ministry model now spans RadioBase, hybrid FM/HD broadcasting, digital Bible apps, web-based Scripture access, multilingual publishing, partner-supported outreach, and emerging technology-enabled delivery.</div><div><br>The organization is operating at a meaningful scale and complexity, including multi-million-dollar annual revenue, expanding radio footprint, significant digital distribution, growing publishing output, and a blended workforce of employees plus strategic partners. Its data landscape reflects that global mission: Bible and teaching content across hundreds of languages and digital endpoints; anonymous and known users; customers, supporters, and donors; campaigns and communications; publishing, commerce, and fulfillment; radio and streaming; and a growing international partner network.</div><div><br></div><div><strong>WHO WE LOOK FOR:&nbsp;</strong></div><ul><li>Great Communicators: You are comfortable sharing written and verbal ideas openly with a team and can appropriately adapt them to varying audiences.</li><li>Adaptable to New Technology: You learn unfamiliar platforms quickly and evaluate technology based on its usefulness, reliability, and fit for the mission.</li><li>Collaborative Problem Solvers: You love to analyze problems and identify ideas for great solutions alongside a skilled team.</li><li>Courageous Listeners: You find joy in approaching situations with empathy and understanding, providing support.</li><li>Good Teachers: You can break down complex concepts and guide others to follow you through simple procedures.</li><li>Optimistic Adapters: You are a “glass-half-full” kind of person who exemplifies optimism, humility, innovation, and excellence in all you do!</li><li>Thoughtful Data Stewards: You treat user, customer, supporter, donor, and partner data as entrusted information.

This role will help create a trusted view across content, audience, campaign, donor, financial, partner, and distribution data so ISM can steward resources wisely and expand access to Scripture worldwide.</div><div><br>ISM values both analytical rigor and humility.
