About the Congregation

The Congregation of the Sisters of St. Joseph of Peace was founded in Nottingham in 1884 by Mother Clare (Margaret Anna Cusack). She was a woman deeply moved by the social conditions of her times and the plight of poor and oppressed people. The focus of our Congregation is to promote peace through justice. Over the years the sisters have served in social work, health care, education and action for justice

The Congregation consists of three geographic regions: one in the United Kingdom and two in the United States (East and Pacific Northwest). The headquarters of the Congregation is in New Jersey. We have vowed members (Sisters) and non-vowed women and men known as Associates. Our total vowed membership is less than 100 Sisters and we have a growing number of Associates. The U.K. is the smallest region with less than 30 vowed members. Our ages range from 37 – 101, with most being over 70. We are a registered charity with Charitable Incorporate Organisation (CIO) status. We currently have convents in Nottingham, Leicester, Cleethorpes, Bradford, and London.

This key in-person position is responsible for the financial operations and human resources (HR) management of the UK region in accordance with good practice, governing documents, and legal requirements of the country. With respect to business operations and HR, the Finance Director serves as the main point of contact for the CSJP community and employees of the region.

This position reports to the Congregation Chief Financial Officer and regional Bursar. Under their direction, the Finance Director oversees and reports on the financial health of the UK region to the Board of Trustees. This position ensures that appropriate and effective measures, controls, and procedures are in place. The Finance Director ensures Congregation and regional operational directions are implemented. It is supervised by a line manager designated by the Board of Trustees.

To ensure smooth operations of the region and protection of its digital information, the Finance Director also oversees the IT operations of the region. This position also works closely with the Office Manager, Health and Wellbeing Co-ordinator, and the Peace through Justice Worker.

Job Information:

This exciting new role in our award-winning External Affairs Department will fight for the hospice sector and people who need their care and support.

This is a critical time for hospice and end of life care. Hospices across the UK are in the worst financial situation they have faced for 20 years. The funding crisis means hospices are cutting services and making redundancies.

But this is also a time of significant political opportunity. The Assisted Dying Bill has placed palliative care firmly on the agenda. We have recently secured £100m of emergency funding for the sector in England and the 10-year health plan has identified hospices as central to the shift from hospital to community. 

To seize this once in a generation opportunity, we are expanding our UK-wide policy and public affairs team from six to eight, including a new Policy and Public Affairs Manager. 

We are looking for a proactive and driven policy and public affairs professional with excellent influencing and communication skills. You will have your finger on the pulse and have strong policy and political knowledge that enables you to quickly understand and analyse the impact of external developments. 

You will be curious about how best to improve people’s experiences of death, dying and bereavement and strengthen the contribution of the hospice sector to this. As well as collaborative and committed to building coalitions to maximise our impact. 

You will provide leadership but must also be willing to pitch in at all levels to get things done. Excellent project management skills will mean you can identify where our resource is best spent and how to delegate tasks. This exciting new role in our award-winning External Affairs Department will fight for the hospice sector and people who need their care and support.

You will personally lead an impressive and wide ranging portfolio of work. This includes leading the charge on securing long-reform of the way hospices are funded in England and taking the next steps in our UK-wide policy and public affairs work on access to palliative and end of life care for people living in financial hardship. You will also line manage a new Policy and Public Affairs Assistant who will be supporting our team across all four nations of the UK.

This is your chance to play a key role in creating a country where no one misses out on the care they need at the end of their lives. For more information, refer to our candidate information pack.
