what's it like to work for soul survivor?
Depending on the time of year there is a team of around 20-30 employees of Soul Survivor, most of whom are friendly enough, if somewhat weird.
you can meet the team here...
A key focus of what we do in the office is based around organising and promoting the events we run. However, a few of the team are regularly invited to speak at churches and conferences around the world about stuff God has put on their hearts.
We also try and invest as much time as we can in building relationships with other like minded organisations and in producing all sorts of material that hopefully inspires and encourages people in their relationship with Jesus.
It's a fun and busy place to work. Some of us are young, some are older and some aren't sure how they ever started working here in the first place. You'd probably fit in (as long as you aren't allergic to dogs... we have a dog in the office).
