Job description
Stella Maris is the official maritime charity of the Catholic Church. We are looking for a Regional Port Chaplain for the West Coast of Scotland to support seafarers, fishers and their families.
In this unique and rewarding role, you'll be the welcoming face of Stella Maris in your region, visiting ships, listening to crew members, and offering practical, pastoral and spiritual support to anyone in need, regardless of faith or background.
About the role
No two days are the same. You might spend the morning visiting ships and listening to crew members' stories, help someone contact their family back home, support a seafarer in crisis, or offer a quiet moment of prayer on deck.
You'll also recruit and support a team of volunteers, work closely with other maritime charities and local partners, and build strong relationships with parishes, dioceses, and port authorities. You'll be part of a nationwide network of Stella Maris chaplains, supported through regular meetings, retreats and professional development opportunities.
Key responsibilities
- Visit ships regularly to meet seafarers and fishers, responding to their pastoral, practical and spiritual needs.
- Provide practical help such as transport, communication access, and emergency or crisis support.
- Offer spiritual care to Catholic seafarers and facilitate the religious needs of those from other faiths.
- Recruit, train and support Stella Maris volunteers.
- Work collaboratively with other maritime charities.
- Maintain strong relationships with local parishes, the Diocese of Argyll & the Isles, stakeholders such as the Harbour Master, shipping agents and welfare committees.
- Support local fundraising and awareness initiatives alongside the charity's national team.
About you
You'll be someone who takes joy in helping others. You don't need maritime experiences, what matters most is your empathy and ability to offer pastoral support in practical ways.
You may come from a background in chaplaincy, parish ministry, community work or social care. You'll share our commitment to upholding the dignity of every seafarer and fisher.
We improve the lives of seafarers and fishers through our network of local chaplains and seafarer centres, expert information, advocacy, and support.

You’ll bring experience of successfully delivering projects and be confident managing multiple priorities, developing partnerships and turning ideas into action.

You’ll also have:
-
A project management qualification and demonstrable experience of successfully delivering projects.
-
A strong understanding of person-centred and strength-based approaches.
-
A genuine belief in every person's right to work, develop skills and build a career if that is what they want.
-
Excellent communication and relationship-building skills.

Everything we do is rooted in our values. First and foremost, we are Christ-centred. The work that we do is guided by faith and the belief that everyone deserves to be treated with dignity and God’s love.
We are bold in fearlessly putting that faith into action to help others and challenge injustice, while also seeking to be compassionate in the way that we want to understand others and offer them meaningful care. We are collaborative in our approach, making time to learn from others and work together to take on UK poverty. And finally, we prioritise being joyful in the face of challenges, because our faith gives us confidence that change is truly possible.

If you are applying for this role and you do not meet the new eligibility criteria for sponsorship or the transitional provisions, you will need to consider your options for obtaining and/or maintaining your right to work in the UK in light of these changes. Successful applicants must ensure they have and maintain the legal right to live and work in the Civil Service and in the United Kingdom.
The Department will continue to comply with the UK Immigration Rules applied in the UK and the Civil Service. You can read more about Skilled Worker visas and the eligibility criteria here.

Employment type: Permanent contract
WeMove Europe is a community of people united by a vision of a better Europe. We run campaigns that empower citizens to take action and influence decision-makers at the European level.
We’re looking for a Head of Communications who will combine communications expertise and an innovative approach to storytelling to engage hundreds of thousands of Europeans in meaningful action. This role reports to the Campaigns Director and has line management responsibilities.
You’ll work closely with our campaigns team and a social media manager to adapt and enhance campaigns through media, partnerships and content. This role works across multiple channels. You don’t need to be a tactical expert in all of them, but you need to be a strong strategic thinker who can carefully consider the role of each channel and asset. You will be as comfortable setting the strategic direction as you are delivering: pitching a story, briefing a journalist, running influencer outreach.
What you’ll do:
-
Advise on and support the development of our campaigns by creating and inputting into campaign narratives and communications plans
-
Work alongside campaigners and social media manager to oversee and/or produce complementary content that builds pressure on the target: reactive posts, video, and assets timed to campaign moments
-
Liaise with media contacts and external agencies to find appropriate opportunities to amplify our campaigns across European and national media
-
Build partnerships with influencers, creators, and independent activists to enhance the power and impact of our campaigns
-
Support the campaigns team to strengthen their storytelling skills and identify compelling storytelling opportunities in their partnerships, such as media hooks
-
Build and sustain contact with journalists, produce press releases and briefings, keep our media database accurate and current across our priority countries
-
Oversee and refresh our social media presence, line managing and coaching a social media manager.
-
Stay close to the news cycle and to what is working on social in order to identify moments that put our campaign in front of the people we need to move
-
Contribute to defining the success measures for communications, including social media KPIs, and oversee activity to meet them
-
Advise senior leadership on communications and reputational considerations, including crisis communications approach
-
Ensure consistency of messaging and tone across all public communications.
-
The WeMove Europe team works in a culture of togetherness and passion for our issues and determination to win, so from time to time, you will be expected to perform activities outside of your normal role.
Who we’re looking for:
Essential skills:
-
Storytelling: You can translate complex policy or campaign issues into compelling stories for different audiences, and generate creative news angles from unlikely material or challenging subject matter. You can write inspiring, clear, and impactful copy in English.
-
Delivery: You have experience in at least one of the following areas:
-
Media relations: Securing proactive and impactful media coverage which influenced policy or moved the needle - in other words, which has had an impact beyond raising profile or raising awareness.
-
Influencer partnerships: Building relationships and impactful collaborations with influencers, content creators or other content partners.
-
Content creation: Producing social media content which mobilised people to take action.
-
-
Audiences: You have experience of engaging new audiences through communications channels, and you are able to use audience insights to influence your approach.
-
Analysis: You are data-driven and results-oriented, eager to test, learn, and continuously improve your content and communications.
-
Collaboration: You thrive in collaborative, international teams, eager to learn from colleagues and share your own expertise.
-
Coaching and training: You can design and deliver practical training that changes how colleagues work, not just how much they know, and you enjoy building capability in others rather than holding it yourself.
Important criteria:
-
Values: You are deeply committed to systemic change in Europe, aligned with values of solidarity, sustainability, justice, and democracy. You are passionate about empowering people to realize their own power and become agents of change.
-
Languages: You are fluent in English
-
Travel: You are willing to travel within Europe when needed (at least 3 times a year)
-
Experience level: You should have five years of relevant experience for this post.
Nice to have
-
You are familiar with a digital-first campaigns model, though you don’t necessarily need to have worked in this context before.
-
Have recent experience of using video to tell complex stories and reach new audiences.
-
You don’t have to have line management experience, but it could be beneficial.
-
Knowledge of the Brussels press landscape alongside national media
-
Other European languages are an added benefit.
