Title: Faith & Church Engagement Manager
Hours: 35 hours per week
Reporting to: Director of Membership
Period:Permanent
Salary:£37- £42k (depending on experience)
Location: SW1P 3RB United Kingdom
Work Type: Hybrid (2 office days)
Overview
Established in 1876. Mothers’ Union has 4 million members in 83 countries, and our members have been empowering communities to combat poverty, speak up for social justice, and improve wellbeing of those around them for more than 145 years. Family and community are at the heart of all we do, ensuring any change is relevant and lasting.
The ways in which we operate to fulfil that need today are quite different to that of the world of the 19th century, but our vision is still of a world where God’s love is shown through loving, respectful and flourishing relationships.
Mothers’ Union is unique. We do not work alongside communities; our volunteers and members work inside and with communities. Based in countless Anglican parishes, our work is run by local people for local people. Breaking the cycle of dependency, we give people the courage to transform their own lives and communities by facilitating change. Our members show their faith through action, and together aim to stop violence, poverty, and injustice.
From small community initiatives to national programmes our aim is to strengthen family life by nurturing relationships that are loving, faithful and respectful. Each member subscribes to the same values; the moral and ethical codes that are central to the ways in which we operate:
- We are firmly rooted in a voluntary ethos centred on mutual respect and collaboration.
- Our governance, leadership, and programmes are driven by and undertaken by members within their own communities worldwide; and
- We work with and welcome to the movement, people of all faiths and none.
Our members may be part of a branch or a wider parish, which sit within a Diocese, which reports to a Province. These Provinces and Dioceses follow the Anglican Church structure. Or they may be groups that sit outside. We also welcome friends and supporters and a host of active volunteers who support the work we do.
Purpose of the Role
Faith underpins all our work and, in this key role the post holder will support the Christian journey by providing resources for personal prayer, spiritual guidance, corporate worship, religious education, and contribute to and participate in member and central charity led events and worship.
This role will explore and research issues about the Christian faith that are relevant to Mothers’ Union, keep the rest of the Charity up to date on issues in the Anglican communion and wider church – and input into the design of MU strategic aims, and work collaboratively with organisations externally on developing resources and implementing faith-based initiatives.
This role will also be responsible for managing Mothers’ Union’s Church-based membership and our Faith and Diocesan Chaplains member-based forums.
However, the focus for this role will be the proactive outreach, development, and maintenance of faith related relationships primarily in Britain and Ireland. This includes creating and managing high-level networks of Christian influencers, Bishops and the wider clergy, and key faith-based organisations to improve the profile, understanding and integration of Mothers' Union within the Anglican communion and ecumenically and to grow our reach, membership numbers, and influence.

Join the award-winning Moving Medicine team, led by the Faculty of Sport and Exercise Medicine UK. We're seeking a dynamic Project Manager to lead two impactful patient-centred physical activity projects.
About the role:
Moving Medicine is an award-winning initiative of the Faculty of Sport and Exercise Medicine UK (FSEM) aimed at improving health through physical activity. It provides healthcare professionals with practical tools and evidence-based resources to promote physical activity in clinical practice. Moving Medicine is our free, award-winning initiative, designed to provide clinicians and allied health professionals with accessible, evidence based, condition specific information to help give advice on physical activity at all stages of a patient’s treatment pathway.
We are expanding our impact through the development of additional Moving Medicine resources for patients. This role will include project managing two large, interlinked projects, with time split across both:
One project is in conjunction with Nuffield Health, the project funders, will initially focus on publishing the newly built Moving Medicine Everyone website (due for publication in November 2025) and accompanying educational resources. The Project Manager will work closely with Moving Medicine clinicians, healthcare partners, stakeholders, and academic collaborators. A key aspect of this role will be to coordinate stakeholder engagement, facilitate collaborative input from academic and clinical experts, and support the demonstration of social impact through evaluation and dissemination activities. The successful candidate will be instrumental in aligning the project with strategic goals, ensuring timely delivery, and maintaining strong relationships.
The other project, Moving Together, is a national collaborative initiative led by the FSEM in partnership with Active Partnerships National Office and funded by Sport England (National Lottery). The project is building a broad cross-sector network and aims to empower people with long-term health conditions to access physical activity by removing barriers, developing evidence-based frameworks, training resources, and governance structures that enable consistent, safe, and effective physical activity conversations across sectors and systems. Working closely with clinicians, patients, policymakers, and professional bodies, Moving Together connects national standards with local implementation, supporting workforce development, data-driven evaluation, and sustainable behaviour change to improve population health and reduce inequalities.
The Project Manager will split their time across both projects, which are closely connected in their goals and approach, and will play a key role in ensuring alignment and synergy between them. This includes supporting shared stakeholders, integrating learning and resources, and contributing to a unified strategy for improving physical activity access and outcomes for patients.
We are seeking an experienced and motivated Project Manager to join our dynamic team, bringing strong organisational skills and a collaborative mindset to drive forward these high impact, patient-centred initiatives.
