You will play a key role in shaping the responsible adoption of emerging technologies, including AI, while ensuring strong governance, security and compliance.

Act as the principal technology advisor to the Diocesan Secretaries and their senior leadership teams. Process Mapping & Optimisation: Lead a comprehensive, collaborative review of key administrative and operational processes within the Diocesan Boards of Finance (DBFs) and in parishes where appropriate. Use process mapping techniques to identify inefficiencies, bottlenecks, and areas for improvement, and then design and implement optimised workflows. AI & Responsible Innovation: Actively research, evaluate, pilot, and implement appropriate AI and automation tools to enhance efficiency, support fundraising, and improve service delivery. Ensure all innovation is undertaken responsibly, ethically, and with a clear focus on tangible benefits. Stakeholder Management & Engagement: Build and maintain strong, collaborative relationships with a diverse range of stakeholders across all five dioceses, including clergy, staff, and volunteers. Foster a culture of digital literacy and champion the benefits of change in a clear, accessible, and empathetic manner. Project & Change Management: Oversee the full lifecycle of technology and process improvement projects, from initial conception and business case development through to delivery, user training, and final handover. Employ robust project management methodologies to ensure projects are delivered on time and within budget. Qualifications, Training & Experience: Proven and extensive senior technology leadership experience (e.g., CTO, Head of IT, Director of Digital Transformation) with clear evidence of strategic impact. Relevant degree (or equivalent) in a technology-related discipline, with appropriate professional certifications in technology, architecture, project or change management, and membership of a relevant professional body. Strong track record in business process mapping, analysis and re-engineering delivering measurable efficiency gains. Practical experience evaluating, procuring and implementing modern technology solutions, including cloud platforms (e.g., Microsoft 365), CRM systems and data analytics tools. Experience in the charity, non-profit or similarly complex, values-driven sector is highly desirable. Demonstrable experience of, or well-informed and practical interest in, the responsible and ethical application of AI and automation in an organisational context. Significant experience in technology strategy, budget management, vendor negotiation and delivery of complex, multi-stakeholder programmes. Competencies & Behavioural requirements: Exceptional communicator and translator: Able to convey complex technical concepts in clear, accessible language and influence a wide range of non-technical stakeholders with confidence.
