About The Role Westminster Abbey Institute's flagship Fellows' Programme works with public servants in, or moving into, leadership roles across public service. Through a mix of seminars and residentials members of the programme are given the opportunity to develop as servant leaders, to gain an integrated understanding of a wide range of public service institutions and their values, and to understand the moral and personal challenges facing those who work in them. Participants are also matched with a mentor from the Institute's Council of Reference and Senior Fellows and have the opportunity to meet leaders from across public service and the wider Abbey community. The Fellows' Programme is one of the most well known and successful elements of the Institute's first ten years. We have 170 Fellows across public service and are keen to nurture and enrich their connectivity and impact as a wider community. This newly created role plays a key role in delivering the Institute's emerging strategy for Renewing faith in public life through leading the ongoing development of its annual Fellows' Programme, and through building a programme of events and activity that sustains, nourishes and connects the wider Fellowship community. This is an exciting time to be involved in the Institute's Fellowship and we are looking for a Deputy Director with the vision, experience and creativity to realise its full potential. Working Hours: 40 hours per week. In this post, the successful candidate will be expected to take a flexible approach and work additional hours as circumstances demand, which will include some evenings and weekends. The postholder is eligible to claim time off in lieu (TOIL) for additional hours worked in accordance with the Overtime Policy and will not be eligible for overtime payments. Annual Holidays: The full-time holiday entitlement is 33 days per annum, including recognised public holidays. Training On-site training will be provided in all aspects of the job. Any further training needs will be assessed through the probation period and in annual appraisals. Pension Scheme and Life Assurance All employees can join a Group Personal Pension plan, where the minimum employee contribution is 3% and the maximum employer contribution is 9% (as determined by the level of the employee contribution). You will be auto-enrolled into our qualifying workplace pension scheme after 3 months, if you meet the eligibility criteria. All employees are covered by death-in-service life assurance, whether or not they choose to join the pension scheme. About The Department Westminster Abbey Institute aims to nurture and revitalise moral and spiritual values in public life and service. It seeks to replenish and sustain public servants of all faiths and none, and to celebrate and animate public service as a force for good. The Institute draws on Westminster Abbey's resources of spirituality and theological learning, rooted in its daily worshipping life and broader Christian tradition, to convene discussion, nourish reflection and inspire regeneration. In its first ten years the Institute has established a strong identity and reputation, with a highly successful fellowship programme and a rich offering of public lectures and seminars, tailored workshops for MPs and public service institutions, and regular publications. The Abbey Board is committed to building on this excellent foundation to broaden and deepen the Institute's impact on public life. The Institute seeks to break new ground in often challenging contexts. It represents the Abbey in very significant fora and speaks with the authority of the Dean and Chapter. Consequently, every aspect of its work has to be of the highest possible standard and in harmony with the distinctive voice the Abbey has in national life and in the life of the national church.
