Job Description
This post offers an exciting opportunity to support the Acting Bishop of London in their mission and ministry as Diocesan Bishop and Area Bishop to the Two Cities, as well as their national responsibilities.
The Diocese of London is the group of Church of England organisations located in London north of the River Thames and covers eighteen London Boroughs. It is made up of parishes, schools, chaplaincies, missional communities and other organisations, which are united by their common Christian faith.
The Diocese is overseen by the Bishop of London, assisted by Area Bishops, Archdeacons and senior staff, and administrated by the staff of the London Diocesan Fund (LDF).
The Cathedral is St Paul's.
The Bishop's Office staff team comprises the Bishop's Chaplain, the Bishop's Adviser, the Executive Assistant, the Diary and Hospitality Manager, and the Correspondence and Administrative Assistant.
The team is based in the delightful surroundings of The Old Deanery in the City of London close to St Paul's Cathedral. The Old Deanery contains the offices of the Bishop of London and the Archdeacons of London, Charing Cross and Hackney and the staff work together to ensure a warm and generous welcome to all visitors.
There will be some flexibility to work remotely but because of the nature of the role please expect to work from The Old Deanery for the majority of the time.
This is an interim role for a period of 12 months.
