Be the spark that connects and uplifts multi-faith chaplaincy work across the UK for people leaving prison. Use your digital skills and people passion to make real impact.
This is more than just a job—it's a unique opportunity to support life-changing work in prisons and communities by encouraging, equipping and linking the amazing people delivering community chaplaincy. The Community Chaplaincy Association (CCA) brings together over 30 independent projects across the UK who support people leaving prison.
As our Encourager and Connector, you’ll build warm, supportive relationships with projects and chaplains, helping them feel seen, heard and empowered. You’ll also use your confident IT and communication skills to improve how we share stories, best practice and resources—whether it’s through a lively newsletter, a well-run Zoom gathering, or an engaging bit of social media.
You’ll work closely with our small but passionate team to spot opportunities, respond to needs, and ensure our members feel truly connected to a shared vision of restorative, faith-informed community.
Who we’re looking for:
A naturally warm and organised person with a heart for people, an understanding of faith-based work (including multi-faith contexts), and a real flair for using digital tools to make things happen. You don’t need to be a chaplain—but you do need to believe in the power of hope, second chances, and supportive relationships.
If you're looking for a flexible, meaningful role where your relational and digital skills can make a real difference, we'd love to hear from you.
