Job description


Are you a strategic storyteller with a passion for caring for the environment and tackling climate change?
We're looking for someone who can build strong relationships with a wide range of stakeholders internally and externally, communicate complex issues in clear ways, and help position the Church's net zero carbon work as a practical expression of our calling to care for God's creation.

Description

You'll understand that effective communication is about more than sharing information; it's about connecting with people's values, telling compelling stories, building relationships and clear calls to action. You'll be able to communicate the Church's response to the climate crisis in a way that is hopeful, authentic and rooted in Christian faith.

The Church of England's Net Zero Carbon Programme is working to reach net zero carbon across the energy used to heat, light, and power all of its buildings, including 16,000 churches, 42 cathedrals and over 4500 schools.

As Comms Lead for the Net Zero Carbon Programme, you will deliver the programme's communications strategy, working with colleagues and stakeholders across the Church to tell stories of progress and inspire action.

As well as copywriting skills, you will have an excellent eye for design and branding and will need experience in commissioning and managing external freelancers and agencies and maintaining budgets. You'll create engaging content across a wide range of channels, from blogs, reports to videos, campaigns and social media.

Recruitment Webinar - We are hosting a recruitment webinar on 29th June 2026 from 12-12:45pm where you can come along to hear more about this exciting role and understand what it's like to work at the National Church Institutions. You will also have the opportunity to ask the team any questions that you may have about the role. To register for this webinar, please click this link .

If this sounds like you, then apply today!

In this role you will:

  • Lead the delivery of the Net Zero Carbon Programme Communications Strategy

  • Create compelling, values-led content across multiple channels

  • Identify and tell inspiring stories from churches, schools, dioceses and cathedrals

  • Support stakeholder engagement and internal communications activity

  • Manage external agencies and creative suppliers

  • Monitor communications performance and evaluate impact

  • Work closely with colleagues across the national Church and dioceses

This is a home-based role, with occasional travel to Church House in Westminster and other locations for meetings.

This role would be a great role for an external secondment from a relevant comms role in a diocese.

This is a fixed term position lasting until 01 November 2027.
