Who We Are:

Big Table is a fast-growing Christian non-profit that provides care for the largest industry in the nation

• those working in the restaurant and hospitality industry.

It is a vibrant industry full of gifted, creative, and generous people. It is also an incredibly tough industry that is the catch basin for the most marginalized in the country: at-risk teens, single parents, minorities, new immigrants, income-insecure seniors, and those formerly incarcerated working to build new lives. Many work inconsistent hours at multiple jobs that push relationships past the breaking point. The stress levels are constantly high and most have no safety net, insurance, or benefits. It is the industry with the highest rates of drug and alcohol abuse in the country.

Our Mission:

Guided by the remarkable example of Jesus, Big Table exists to see the lives of those working in the restaurant and hospitality industry transformed by creating community and caring for those who are in crisis, transition, or falling through the cracks. Big Table is joyfully committed to care for all who work in the restaurant and hospitality industry without any strings attached. We do so specifically because of our faith that God created each person for eternity, and each person we engage with is of infinite value. We share our Christian faith and model Christ's love as we care and build trust. We don't lead with this on our website or print materials because the perception of Christian faith in the restaurant and hospitality industry is uniquely negative and would keep us from engaging the very people we are called to serve.

What We Are Looking For:

Big Table seeks a highly skilled, part-time Executive Assistant to join a fast-paced, high-performance Headquarters Office team in Spokane, WA. The Executive Assistant plays a vital role in helping our Executive team oversee Big Table operations nationally by providing comprehensive and confidential administrative support.

Who You Are:

You handle confidential issues with discretion and find joy in supporting a Leadership team to reach their highest potential. You enjoy a culture marked by integrity, honesty, and support that values thoughtful feedback and inspires ongoing learning and development. You are pliable and joyful and would be comfortable in a fast-growing organization that is continually evolving.
