Who We Are
We're bound together by a big purpose: to see healthy missionaries living on the field with fully-funded employment for their mission. We began over 25 years ago and currently have over 130 partnering churches and nonprofits. We are an accredited 501(c)3 evangelical Christian mission agency, and our field missionaries do a variety of things, such as counsel broken relationships, help university students find their spiritual beliefs, pioneer new churches & innovative ministries, and help women make a sustainable living in Kenya — all in the name of Jesus Christ.
Learn about Our People and Our Mission & Values
Our Central Office
Reliant's central office is located in Orlando, Florida, serving over 500 missionaries in the U.S. and abroad. We are a close-knit, professional team dedicated to supporting the global work. Our agency is a church-based ministry that hires skilled workers in the context of an active office environment. We enjoy the administrative details and excel at human resources, event management, donor services, gift processing, payroll & accounting, web development, IT support, and more. We also like to have a lot of fun and work hard to create an enjoyable culture of shared values and mutual respect.
Perks & Benefits
Purposeful Procedures The Reliant central office serves a large and broad purpose: seeing God's kingdom come in our immediate neighborhoods and to the far reaches of the globe. As a team member, you'll be a part of helping to employ hundreds of missionaries on the field and share in the impact of their work on the ground.
Prioritized Personal Health We want to ensure that our team is happy, healthy, and connected to our God and our mission. While we offer generous traditional benefits (health, dental, vision, paid time off), we also have flexibility in our schedules for family, fun, and everyday life. Every year we offer our team members one "day with God" and one week for missions work to ensure we're putting first things first.
Nonstop Innovation Since we're a team that's continually growing in who we work with and how we serve, we're able to push the status quo for serving our partners more broadly and more effectively. We are anything but stagnant and are constantly working in creative ways to find new solutions to common problems. Being a part of the Reliant central office means growing in strategic thinking through conferences, strategy meetings with local business professors, annual retreats, and other general team-growth benefits.
