About Us
Warnbro Community Church is a vibrant evangelical church located in the heart of the growing City of Rockingham, WA. We’re blessed with a multi-generational congregation of 600 adults and kids each Sunday and have over 1,300 individuals participating in small groups, outreach, and community initiatives throughout the week. Our vision is to be more than a Sunday — every person living every moment of every day intentionally for Jesus.
The Role
As our Youth and Young Adults Pastor, you’ll play a pivotal role in raising up the next generation of Christians who will make an impact in the world for Jesus. You’ll lead and shape our youth and young adults ministries, which currently include Friday Night Youth, YA life groups, camps, and events.

Beyond its physical beauty, we are witnessing a powerful move of God in our community, with hearts turning to Jesus and lives being transformed. Rockingham is a place where you can experience both the beauty of creation and the incredible work of the Creator.

About You
We’re looking for someone with strong character, deep conviction, and proven competency in youth ministry. You’ll need to be a team player with a heart for people and a passion for the gospel. This role is of huge significance and requires someone ready to invest in people, not just run programs.
