About the role

UTMB Health seeks a Chaplain I for Pastoral Care in a casual 19-hour-per-week role at our hospital in Galveston, TX. The position focuses on direct spiritual care for patients, families, and staff, with collaboration across disciplines and active community engagement. The role requires graduate-level theological education, CPE units, and ordination/endorsement from a faith group, with on-call and chapel responsibilities as part of a multidisciplinary team.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
