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. The role is predominantly office-based, with flexibility to work remotely at times, and is based in a friendly and busy office in a pleasant and beautiful environment. It requires someone who can work effectively and independently while being a collaborative and valued member of the wider Bishop's team.
This is a significant and high-profile appointment, and we are looking for someone who will become a trusted member of a dedicated team based at Bishopscroft.
