ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF

Administrative, Facilities and Kitchen Staff

Bob Sittig, Church Administrator

Bob has held various lay leadership positions at Seattle First Baptist over the past twenty years. These include Stewardship Chair, Treasurer and President of the congregation. Educated as a Mechanical Engineer, Bob enjoyed a career in manufacturing systems design and sales, which led to several corporate management positions in that field.

Prior to accepting the Administrator position, Bob managed his own general contracting company specializing in homebuilding, remodeling and the installation of exercise swimming pools. His knowledge of our congregation, our financial systems and the church facility provide many valuable tools for the Administrator position. Bob's hobbies include woodworking and aviation. He and his wife Susan enjoy spending time with their three children and seven (to date) grandchildren.
