Summary
The Vision and Strategy Team has been established to support the whole Church in its embrace of and engagement with the national Vision and Strategy for the Church for the 2020s. The Vision and Strategy department has three strategic priorities: to be a church of missionary disciples, to be younger and more diverse, and to develop a mixed ecology - doing church in varied forms and settings.
The Vision and Strategy team consults on, one of the largest grant-aking programmes in the country, with £100m + of Strategic Mission and Ministry Investment (SMMI) disbursed annually by the Strategic Mission and Ministry Investment Board (SMMIB) to support the Church's mission and ministry across England, prioritising investment in the most income deprived communities. The SMMI funding includes a Diocesan Investment Programme (DIP) and a Partnership Funding programme which provide funding to enable the bold outcomes and strategic priorities of the Vision & Strategy to become a reality in parishes and communities. In addition, the team manages a portfolio of £300m of existing projects and programmes. As funding programmes mature there is a need for increased focus on insight and learning from the portfolio, an understanding of what this means for future strategy and clear communication of its impact.
This role has been established to provide editorial leadership for the next phase of development for the Church of England's Church Support Hub. This platform is the primary channel through which key stakeholders can engage with insights and learning from work to implement the Church of England's Vision and Strategy. Editorial oversight will involve bringing creativity to enhance the range of resources users can access, maintaining high levels of excellence and quality, curating content to meet the needs of leaders in local churches, dioceses and national work.
