We are seeking a Local Ministry Development Lead to help grow and sustain lay ministry across Cornwall. This is a new role and a unique opportunity to shape the future of ministry in a beautiful and spiritually rich part of the country, working alongside clergy, lay leaders, and diocesan colleagues to support collaborative, context-based leadership.

You will be leading the development, training, and support of local lay ministry across the Diocese of Truro, with a particular focus on discerning, training, and commissioning Local Leaders as part of the Oversight–Local pattern of ministry.

This role will contribute directly to our strategic organisational priorities, and support our commitment to Growing Younger by enabling intergenerational, inclusive, and contextually rooted leadership.

We value work-life balance and employee wellbeing and are committed to supporting your development. We offer benefits such as flexible working, up to 26 days annual leave, a range of wellbeing activities and the Church of England Pension Scheme. More information on this here.

 SAFEGUARDING - EVERYONE MATTERS - EVERYONE’S RESPONSIBILITY

The Diocese of Truro strives to be trauma informed, and is committed to developing safer policies, cultures, and practices.

Due to the nature of the role, there is an occupational requirement to be a practising Christian.

As Data Officer, you will support the Head of Finance and Operations across a range of important day-to-day tasks, with a particular focus on income reconciliation, accounting preparation, the maintenance of our Salesforce CRM database, as well as using the CRM to run reports.

You will take responsibility for keeping Save the Rhino's data clean, accurate, and audit-ready — carrying out regular imports, cleaning routines, and backups, and producing reports that help colleagues across fundraising and communications to do their jobs effectively.

Alongside this, you will contribute to key financial processes including Gift Aid claims, VAT returns, and monthly management accounts, developing a solid grounding in charity finance. For the right person, this combination of data and financial responsibilities offers an unusually broad grounding - ideal for someone early in their career who wants to develop skills across both disciplines rather than specialise immediately.

You will be methodical and detail-oriented, comfortable working with data and spreadsheets, and confident following established and documented procedures while flagging issues when you spot them. You will be a collaborative team player, supporting colleagues across the organisation and keen to learn and grow within a small, committed team.

This is a new role for Save the Rhino, and it is one that might appeal to individuals with different experience and backgrounds. We are open to this role being full time (35 hours per week) or part time (28 hours per week).
