Administrators

People working at computers

Now you are Christ’s body, and individually parts of it. And God has appointed in the church first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then workers of miracles, then healers, helpers, administrators, speakers in various kinds of tongues. Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Do all work mighty deeds? Do all have gifts of healing? Do all speak in tongues? Do all interpret? Strive eagerly for the greatest spiritual gifts.
1 Corinthians 12:27-31

Parish Administrators include anybody employed (paid or unpaid) by a church in an administrative capacity. They can also be known as parish or benefice coordinators or secretaries.
