We are looking for an individual with:

• Proven business development skills and the ability to diversify income.

• A strong track record of leadership, with a commitment to collaboration, inclusivity, and professional development.

Why is this role important?
The Methodist Church has committed to achieve net-zero by 2030. An ambitious target yes, but one we believe to be crucial in securing a better future for our communities. Our new Net-Zero Officer will play a significant role in enabling our churches in London to assess their environmental impact, learn, grow and benefit from the wider impact of reaching net zero.

A brilliant central office in Westminster, ability to work remotely, great (supportive) colleagues, flexible working, learning and development opportunities, pay, pensions and generous down time, committed to equality diversity and inclusion, and, did we mention the great colleagues?
