Network development officer jobs

Bible Society is on a mission to increase Bible confidence in the Church and change the conversation about the Bible in culture.  We are ambitious to see the Bible ‘translated’ into every part of life and society.

We see a huge mission opportunity in England and Wales and increasingly our attention is focused on growing Bible confidence in the Church and inviting the spiritually open to engage with what the Bible has to say in their own lives.

As Director of Domestic Mission you will be responsible for:

- Leading and implementing programmes to mobilise the domestic Church for Bible mission, and to enable spiritually               open people to discover and engage with the Bible.

- Embedding a mission culture marked by prayerful humility, relational partnership and inter-confessional                                 collaboration.

If you are content with the state of contemporary Christianity in modern society and the place of the Bible in popular culture, then this is not the role for you. On the other hand, if you are provoked and stirred by the confusion, misunderstanding and lack of knowledge about the Bible in society; if you know the transforming power of Scripture to bring us into an encounter with Jesus by the Holy Spirit and change our lives and relationships; and if you want to harness your excellent leadership, relationship-building and missional vision-casting skills to help mobilise a Bible movement in our generation, then we are excited to be talking to you.
