The Bishop of Sheffield is seeking to appoint a new Senior Personal Assistant. This is a high-profile and pivotal appointment, providing an exciting opportunity to work closely with the Bishop at the heart of the Diocese of Sheffield. We are looking for a dynamic, highly organised and proactive individual who thrives in a fast-paced environment, can manage competing priorities and work confidently with initiative and discretion.
