Agent jobs

Job description

Stella Maris is the official maritime charity of the Catholic Church.  We are looking for a Regional Port Chaplain for the East Englia Ports to support seafarers, fishers and their families.

In this unique and rewarding role, you'll be the welcoming face of Stella Maris in your region, visiting ships, listening to crew members, and offering practical, pastoral and spiritual support to anyone in need, regardless of faith or background.

About the role

No two days are the same.  You might spend the morning visiting ships and listening to crew members' stories, help someone contact their family back home, support a seafarer in crisis, or offer a quiet moment of prayer on deck.

You'll also recruit and support a team of volunteers, work closely with other maritime charities and local partners, and build strong relationships with parishes, dioceses, and port authorities.  You'll be part of a nationwide network of Stella Maris chaplains, supported through regular meetings, retreats and professional development opportunities.

Key responsibilities

• Visit ships regularly to meet seafarers and fishers, responding to their pastoral, practical and spiritual needs.
• Provide practical help such as transport, communication access, and emergency or crisis support.
• Offer spiritual care to Catholic seafarers and facilitate the religious needs of those from other faiths.
• Recruit, train and support Stella Maris volunteers.
• Work collaboratively with other maritime charities.
• Maintain strong relationships with local parishes, the Diocese of East Anglia, and port stakeholders such as the Harbour Master, shipping agents and welfare committees.
• Support local fundraising and awareness initiatives alongside the charity's national team.

About you

You'll be someone who takes joy in helping others.  You don't need maritime experiences, what matters most is your empathy and ability to offer pastoral support in practical ways.

You may come from a background in chaplaincy, parish ministry, community work or social care.  You'll share our commitment to upholding the dignity of every seafarer and fisher.

As an Engagement Centre Assistant, you’ll care for our supporters and guide them through their journey with Compassion. You’ll answer incoming enquiries and initiate outgoing enquiries by phone, SMS, email, letter, live chat and social media. You’ll help our supporters grow in engagement with their sponsored children and Compassion’s ministry. 

By doing this well and delivering excellent customer service, you’ll encourage our supporters to participate fully in the global movement of Compassion so that together, we can release more children from poverty in Jesus’ name. 

Key Responsibilities

• Actively maintain and promote Compassion UK’s Christian ethos and values 
• Build relationships with supporters to ensure they are known, loved, connected, and ignited to action.

The successful candidate will have:

• Customer service experience.  Demonstrated ability to engage customers and manage their inquiries effectively. 
• Core computer and administration skills. Experience with basic office systems such as Outlook, Teams, and Word is required.   
• Able to work independently and as part of a team. Pursues targets, maintains quality, and handles challenging inquiries with patience, prioritising supporters' interests. 
• A great listener and communicator. Actively listens, balances friendliness with professionalism, adapts communication, and clearly explains complex situations.
• Adaptable, flexible, and resilient.  Comfortable in fast-paced settings, meets objectives with high quality, handles tough inquiries patiently, and adapts to flexible schedules to prioritise supporters. 
• There’s an occupational requirement for the holder of this role to be a practising Christian, in order to promote Compassion’s ethos and help others to experience, explore and express the faith-based motivation of our work. (You can read more about this in our Policy on Posts to be Held by Christians.)

Who are Midland Heart? We're one team working together for our tenants; a large and ambitious housing organisation providing more people an affordable place to call home. We welcome people from every walk of life, at every stage of their career. We expect a lot from our people but in return you can be assured of a great place to work, where you will be well rewarded and where great people are able to succeed.
