The Director of Technical Arts provides leadership, vision, and oversight for all aspects of technical production at Eastview, including audio, lighting, video, and broadcast environments. This role is responsible for developing and leading a team of staff and volunteers while building systems and processes that support both weekend services and key ministry events. More than managing production, this leader will help translate vision into execution—aligning the technical environment with the church’s desire to create impactful, distraction-free worship experiences. This is a highly relational leadership role that requires both technical competence and the ability to develop people and build clarity across teams.
This is a rare opportunity to step into a church that is both deeply established and actively evolving. Eastview has the resources, influence, and momentum of a large church, combined with the humility and openness of a team that knows it’s still growing.
There is real work to do here—but it’s meaningful work. You’ll have the chance to shape the future of technical ministry, invest in a young and capable team, and help bring clarity where there is currently complexity.
If you’re someone who enjoys building, developing, and aligning people around a shared vision, this role offers both challenge and reward in equal measure.
A Great Match For This Position Would Be:
- You are a pastor-technician hybrid who genuinely enjoys developing people as much as you enjoy building systems and environments.
- You have experience mentoring younger leaders and find energy in helping others grow in both skill and confidence.
- You bring a steady, structured approach to leadership and can create clarity, expectations, and consistency for a developing team.
- You have the relational intelligence to collaborate well with senior leadership while also leading your team through the realities of technical execution.
- You see technical ministry as discipleship, not just production, and care deeply about how environments support what God is doing in people’s lives.
- You are confident but not controlling—able to lead with authority while remaining approachable, humble, and teachable.
Staff Culture:
- The staff is highly collaborative, with a shared commitment to the mission and a willingness to work together across departments.
- There is a growing emphasis on building a healthy, unified culture where people feel valued, heard, and supported.
- Leaders are encouraged to take initiative, innovate, and adapt while staying aligned with the overall vision of the church.
- The team cares deeply about people—both inside and outside the church—and works hard to create environments that reflect that heart.
- There is an honest recognition that the church is still evolving, which creates openness to feedback, growth, and improvement.
Key Responsibilities:
- Provide leadership and oversight for Eastview’s Technical Arts staff, ministry partners, and volunteer teams across audio, lighting, video, and broadcast production.
- Lead the technical production of weekend services and major ministry events, ensuring reliable and distraction-free environments that support worship and teaching.
- Develop and implement a strategic plan for technical arts that aligns with the mission and vision of Eastview Church.

- Recruit, train, and develop volunteer and staff teams who serve in production roles, helping them grow both technically and spiritually.
- Provide project management and oversight for AVL systems, upgrades, and technical infrastructure across the church’s campuses.
- Lead regular meetings and coaching conversations with direct reports while cultivating a culture of collaboration, ownership, and excellence.

- You possess strong technical knowledge across AVL systems, with particular strength in audio and broadcast production.
- You are an effective communicator who can translate complex technical concepts into clear, actionable direction.
- You have the ability to build systems, workflows, and standards that enable teams to execute reliably and consistently.
- You are a committed follower of Jesus who views technical ministry as an extension of discipleship and service.
