Job description

The Diocese of London is seeking an experienced leader, for our next Chair of the Audit and Risk Committee, to play a key role in the work of the London Diocesan Fund (‘LDF’), as we seek to do everything we can to support the church in London as it contributes to the flourishing of people and communities across the city

The size and missional opportunity of the Diocese of London is huge. The population of around 4.8 million is served by 400 parishes, around 100+ additional worshipping communities, around 1,000 clergy and ministers and approximately 70,000 regular worshippers.  The LDF is the central support organisation and has a staff of over 100 people.

We want to see the church building communities, transforming lives and being a constant presence in an ever-changing city and our 2030 vision is ‘for every Londoner to encounter the love of God in Christ’.

We are looking for an experienced leader to:

- Help ensure that the charity’ external and internal audit functions are operating efficiently and effectively

- Ensure that the risk management process adopted by the charity enables the identification of key risks as well as internal controls to mitigate these risks.

- Help the charity in maintaining adequate and effective financial controls and processes.

We are seeking someone who is a committed Christian with a track record of being an effective Chair with extensive experience of audit and risk management frameworks to help mature the Board’s exercise of stewardship, helping trustees and clergy without financial management experience understand and participate in this aspect of their responsibilities.

The Diocese of London is committed to creating and sustaining a diverse and inclusive workforce which represents our context and wider community. We know that those of Global Majority Heritage/United Kingdom Minority Ethnic (GMH/UKME), women, and disabled people are currently under-represented among our clergy and workforce, and we particularly encourage applications from those with the relevant skills and experience that will increase this representation.

We are looking for somebody who will share our values. This post is subject to an occupational requirement that the holder be a practicing Christian under Part 1 of Schedule 9 to the Equality Act 2010. Candidates should worship at an Anglican church.

The time commitment is approximately 8 to 12 days a year. This includes four Committee meetings per year, preparation and reading of papers and informal ad hoc interactions.

The Diocese of London is committed to the safeguarding of children and vulnerable adults, therefore any appointment is conditional upon the successful completion of a DBS check.

If this opportunity excites you, we look forward to receiving your application and discussing this opportunity with you further.
