This is an exciting time in our diocese, with the launch of the vision of Transforming Church, Transforming Lives in 2016 leading to significant new missional energy in many of our churches, chaplaincies and schools. It’s been especially encouraging to witness the development of around 80 new worshipping communities since the launch, including four major projects in areas of new housing.

Over the past two years we have moved our diocesan teams into new, attractive, open-plan offices on the University of Surrey Research Park; and more recently we have embarked on a major review of the services we offer, seeking to ensure that our diocesan strategy gets well embedded, that our resources are efficiently managed, and that Church House Guildford is genuinely scratching where the parishes are itching. Note that due to the covid pandemic, our teams are currently working remotely from the safety of their homes.

We are looking for a proven practitioner and skilled technical and digital professional who can help us shape, plan and deliver the migration of our processes, systems and information to web-based services. In doing so you will help us to further streamline and improve our workflows at Church House whilst also making it easier for our parishes to access information.

We want someone with the right mix of experiences who can challenge, inspire and deliver in this area of specialism, but also a colleague who shares the passion and heart to reach and serve communities in this place.

The role is for 14 hours per week on a fixed term contract for 12 months. Our salaries are competitive within the charity sector with a generous non-contributory pension provision. Due to the Covid pandemic, we are currently able to work remotely from the safety of our own homes.

If you have the experience we are looking for and a passion to join us in our journey, we welcome an application from you. Your application should consist of a completed application form and supporting statement (no more than two sides of A4) detailing your reasons for applying, what you can bring to the post and how you meet its requirements. The closing date for receipt of applications is midnight on Sunday 12 July 2020.

We look forward to hearing from you!

It has launched important initiatives to expand and protect honest discussions of evidence, including AllTrials, a global campaign for the reporting of clinical trial results; and ‘Ask for Evidence’, which engages the public in requesting evidence for claims. It has challenged practices and changed the behaviour of governments, media and corporations in the use of scientific evidence.

This is a new senior role, created as we reorganise our team to achieve greater respect for the public interest in good use of evidence, and introduce effective internal systems to support that. The head of programmes and operations will work closely with the director to implement strategy, with oversight across delivery of projects and programmes, finance and governance, and managing partnerships.

Job description

The role involves:

• Developing and leading an organisation-wide management system, involving planning and monitoring the delivery of our projects and programmes, integrating responsive actions and identifying the necessary changes and decisions:

You will be articulate, motivated and ambitious about our aims. We respond to events and no two days are the same so you need to be able to plan well but adapt quickly and maintain a view across all of our work. Established networks with publishers, universities, learned and professional societies, researchers or community groups would give you a head-start. The ideal candidate might come from project management or a range of other backgrounds but will have:

• A strong commitment to achieving the aims of Sense about Science
• Significant experience in project management, and managing relationships and resources in an effective, imaginative way.
• A bold and competent approach to organisation and efficiency, including competence in databases, spreadsheets and project planning and ideas about how to tailor them.
