In a time of considerable change and uncertainty we are looking for a colleague to help us strengthen our core work, engage with national conversations and deepen our relationship with our patronage clergy and congregations.
In this high-profile role, you will be relating both to senior leaders within the dioceses and with clergy as they lead parishes and apply for new positions.
