Job description

Summary

Are you passionate about fostering ecumenical relationships and shaping the strategic direction of faith-based collaboration? We are seeking an experienced National Advisor for Ecumenical Relations to support the Archbishops and Bishops in their ecumenical responsibilities, ensuring meaningful partnerships with churches across the UK and beyond.

The ecumenical sub-team is currently composed of three staff, two of whom (including the advertised post) are full-time, and one part-time, with access to administrative support from a fourth (half-time). The National Advisor for Ecumenical Relations is the sub-team manager. The sub-team is part of the Faith and Public Life team and is based at Lambeth Palace. It operates under the aegis of the Council for Christian Unity, reporting to the Archbishops' Council and also to the Archbishops of Canterbury and York.

What you'll be doing
The National Ecumenical Officer is a senior post, and the person appointed will work with the Council for Christian Unity to direct and manage the Church of England's ecumenical relationships at home and abroad and will work through the Office of the Archbishops to support the Archbishops of Canterbury and York in their ecumenical engagements.

As National Ecumenical Officer, you will promote, sustain and develop the Church of England's ecumenical relations, with a focus on enabling cooperation between churches in mission and evangelism. This involves working on cross-cutting issues with a bearing on ecumenical relations with other churches.

As someone considering this role, you will have extensive experience of ecumenical dialogue, whether locally, nationally or internationally, and a vision for ecumenism which holds unity and diversity together creatively. You will be driven by a theological vision for the work and have the pragmatism to know what is achievable and at what cost. You will be skilled in working with a range of senior stakeholders, with the wisdom to advise them authoritatively on ecumenical matters.

Interviews are expected to take place on 30 June 2025.

Summary of main responsibilities
  • Provide ecumenical guidance to Archbishops and bishops in their ministries.
  • Contribute to the strategic direction of the F&PL team, shaping ecumenical priorities.
  • Represent the CCU and the Church of England at ecumenical bodies and key events.
  • Offer theological expertise, collaborating with FAOC and integrating insights into the F&PL team's work.
  • Build and maintain networks with ecumenical leaders and representatives in the UK and internationally.
  • Support partnerships with other churches in mission and evangelism, advising on theological and practical matters.
  • Prepare briefing papers and reports on ecumenical relations for senior Church figures.
  • Participate in CCU meetings, fostering strong collaboration across the NCIs.
Key role requirements
  • Because of the representative role of this post and the nature of the relationships it involves, there is a Genuine Occupational Requirement that the person appointed be a Communicant member of the Church of England.
  • Willingness and ability to travel within the UK and abroad, including overnight trips.
  • Hybrid work arrangement, with the expectation to work from the office (Church House, London or The Old Brewhouse - Bishopthorpe, York). Details about working arrangements for this post will be discussed further at the interview.
  • An enhanced DBS check will be required as part of our pre-employment checks.
Please note: This role is also suited for candidates who choose to work from home. If you opt to be a homeworker, you are responsible for your own travel expenses to your primary/base location, as the role requires you to attend infrequent face-to-face meetings 1-2 days per month.

About You
The Church of England is for everyone, and we want to reflect the diversity of the community the Church serves across the whole country. Therefore, while of course we welcome all applications from interested and suitably experienced people, we would particularly welcome applicants from UK Minoritised Ethnicities (UKME)/Global Majority Heritage (GMH) and other under-represented groups. As a Disability Confident employer, we are committed to recruiting disabled people. We offer interviews to disabled people who meet the minimum criteria for the role.

You will need to be/have:

  • Enthused by the Church of England's commitment to pursuing the full visible unity of the one church of Jesus Christ;
  • Able to demonstrate a deep engagement with ecclesiology in all its forms;
  • Willingness to engage equally with the historic communions of East and West, with the churches deriving from the Reformation, and with Pentecostal, new and independent churches;
  • Good knowledge of the major theological and doctrinal issues addressed in ecumenical agreements and joint statements ('Faith and Order') and of significant areas of co-operation in mission, evangelism and social and public affairs ('Life and Works');
  • The ability to master a brief, write concisely and clearly, and provide research and briefing notes for a variety of stakeholders.
  • Able to translate vision and 'big picture' thinking into strategy and deliverable outcomes;
  • Able to work quickly - to turn round agendas, minutes and other documents to time;
  • Attention to detail - including planning for meetings and conferences, practical arrangements, travel, etc
Please refer to the Job Description for more information about the role and person specification.
