The work of the Social Justice Officer will be shaped by the Church of England's Five Marks of Mission - proclaiming the good news of the Kingdom through presence and relationship; responding to human need by loving service; seeking to transform unjust structures of society, to challenge violence of every kind and to pursue peace and reconciliation; nurturing new believers; and safeguarding the integrity of creation - understood not as abstract principles, but as lived, local commitments. The postholder will help nurture social justice action by listening carefully to local, regional, national and international needs, building partnerships with relevant local and national organisations, and enabling creative, responsive initiatives that meet gaps in social justice provision. The postholder will represent the Diocese at the local and regional level as needed. The role will cover three key aspects: Data Collection, Networking & Connecting, Engaging & Reporting, to be a leading voice for social justice and action in the diocese: Promoting the case for why Christians should be involved in this sort of action Highlighting good practice Feeding into borough and regional networks, the social justice challenges our parishes are encountering in communities.

This means that you will have access to the support of colleagues in communications, discipleship development, growing leaders, mission area support, data analysis and project management, and colleagues working in the Racial Justice Programme, the Environment Team and in Parish Nursing services. You will be expected to collaborate with these colleagues, strategically and practically, to support the delivery of the social justice work. The post holder will have the opportunity to collaboratively shape the priorities and workplace for the role. However, we anticipate that the following few years could look as follows: Year 1 - listening, parish audits, mapping of social justice activity, assessing local priority issues/areas of interest. Identify a maximum of 3 areas to focus on as a diocese and recommend these to the Bishop's Council after review by any suitable sub-groups, e.g., the Board of Faith and Justice or equivalent. Year 2 - develop connections into local and regional networks where priority issues/areas of interest align with what you've found in year 1. Resources and comms to encourage, inspire and support social justice in our parishes. Year 3 - continue to focus on the 3 priority areas and review change and learning since the start of the work. We recognise that social justice is a huge topic area and will welcome the post holder working collaboratively to identify some areas of focus for the next few years of the strategy, to the end of 2031. This is a post which is funded by a grant from the National Church, currently up to the end of 2028. There will be further opportunity for us to review and extend the role if further funding is available, with the current expectation that this could be until 2031. Regular reviews on this will take place. We have a strong record for applications and grants, but we are not in a position to give guarantees.

Job Purpose To promote, encourage and support social justice and climate justice action across the Diocese of Sheffield. The Social Justice Officer will be a senior practitioner who will play a key role in encouraging and equipping people to step out in faith beyond our church walls, responding to issues of poverty and injustice and working with others to transform the communities around us, be that local, city-wide, our nation and to the wider world. The work of the Social Justice Officer will be shaped by the Church of England's Five Marks of Mission - proclaiming the good news of the Kingdom through presence and relationship; responding to human need by loving service; seeking to transform unjust structures of society, to challenge violence of every kind and to pursue peace and reconciliation; nurturing new believers; and safeguarding the integrity of creation - understood not as abstract principles, but as lived, local commitments. The postholder will help nurture social justice action by listening carefully to local, regional, national and international needs, building partnerships with relevant local and national organisations, and enabling creative, responsive initiatives that meet gaps in social justice provision. The postholder will represent the Diocese at the local and regional level as needed. The role will cover three key aspects: Data Collection, Networking & Connecting, Engaging & Reporting, to be a leading voice for social justice and action in the diocese: Promoting the case for why Christians should be involved in this sort of action Highlighting good practice Feeding into borough and regional networks, the social justice challenges our parishes are encountering in communities. You will work as part of the Diocese of Sheffield central support team. This means that you will have access to the support of colleagues in communications, discipleship development, growing leaders, mission area support, data analysis and project management, and colleagues working in the Racial Justice Programme, the Environment Team and in Parish Nursing services. You will be expected to collaborate with these colleagues, strategically and practically, to support the delivery of the social justice work. The post holder will have the opportunity to collaboratively shape the priorities and workplace for the role. However, we anticipate that the following few years could look as follows: Year 1 - listening, parish audits, mapping of social justice activity, assessing local priority issues/areas of interest. Identify a maximum of 3 areas to focus on as a diocese and recommend these to the Bishop's Council after review by any suitable sub-groups, e.g., the Board of Faith and Justice or equivalent. Year 2 - develop connections into local and regional networks where priority issues/areas of interest align with what you've found in year 1. Resources and comms to encourage, inspire and support social justice in our parishes. Year 3 - continue to focus on the 3 priority areas and review change and learning since the start of the work. We recognise that social justice is a huge topic area and will welcome the post holder working collaboratively to identify some areas of focus for the next few years of the strategy, to the end of 2031. This is a post which is funded by a grant from the National Church, currently up to the end of 2028. There will be further opportunity for us to review and extend the role if further funding is available, with the current expectation that this could be until 2031. Regular reviews on this will take place. We have a strong record for applications and grants, but we are not in a position to give guarantees.

You will directly support ODBF staff, including training and response to queries and proactive advice and support to area teams (bishops, archdeacons and their teams) and parishes. The role provides an excellent opportunity for varied work, especially for someone who enjoys the full breadth and depth of data protection work. Although there is no direct line management responsibility, the role requires working well in a team, supporting others with confidence in your personal decision-making.

With proven knowledge and experience in offering timely, high-quality advice and guidance on GDPR issues and a 'can-do' approach to case work, you will deliver excellent, meaningful support to the ODBF, area teams and parishes. You will be flexible in your working style and collegiate in spirit, with confident communication skills and excellent attention to detail. You will be comfortable prioritising competing demands and in dealing with information of a sensitive and sometimes emotive nature. In return, there will be many opportunities for you to enhance your skill set and gain new experiences, whilst performing a highly valued role, in an organisation striving to make a positive difference. This role can be fulfilled on a hybrid basis, with some requirement for a physical presence in the office (Church House Oxford, Kidlington, Oxford, OX5 1GF). You do not need to be a practising Christian or have a faith to work with us - around 50% of our staff are not practising Christians but are comfortable with the Christian ethos that underpins our work. However, all our staff do have a shared desire to make a difference. The successful candidate must have the right to live and work in the United Kingdom. Only shortlisted candidates will be contacted for interviews. If you do not hear from us, your application has not been successful. We are particularly keen to receive applications from UK Minority Ethnic / Global Majority heritage and disabled candidates, who are currently underrepresented.
