Inclusive Boards is delighted to support Southwark Cathedral to appoint two Lay Member of Chapter and Charity Trustees
For over 1400 years Southwark Cathedral has stood as a place of Christian worship and service. Today it occupies a distinctive place on London’s South Bank – surrounded by some of the city’s most iconic cultural and commercial institutions, including the Tate Modern, Shakespeare’s Globe and Borough Market.
As the mother church of the Diocese of Southwark, the Cathedral is both a spiritual home and civic beacon for communities and parishes in south London, Kent and Surrey. It is a place of worship and welcome, where faith meets daily life, hosting thousands of visitors (not least because of its proximity to Borough Market), community initiatives and cultural partnerships each year.
Guided by our mission ‘to make space for love, with heart mind and soul’, we seek to reflect God’s love in a way that reaches beyond the Cathedral’s walls: building relationships, inspiring creativity, encouraging learning, championing social justice and inclusivity and engaging with the life of our multi-ethnic diverse city.
About the Cathedral Chapter
The Cathedral Chapter (the governing body) is now seeking to appoint two new Lay Members, who can bring fresh perspectives, professional insight and the ability to help strengthen the strategy and management of our property portfolio, including the Cathedral building and precinct.
As a lay Member of Chapter, you will serve as both trustee and adviser supporting the Cathedral’s mission through effective governance, scrutiny of decisions, financial oversight, and the development of future strategy and management for our property portfolio, including the Cathedral and precinct.
Your insight and expertise will help ensure Southwark Cathedral remains not only a place of worship but also a centre of community life, rooted in faith championing diversity and inclusion.

As a trusted adviser, you will help shape the Cathedral’s strategy for growth, sustainability and public engagement and the role of our property portfolio and Cathedral building in underpinning that strategy.
You will play an active role in helping Chapter develop an appropriate strategy to direct future investment in our properties and their ongoing maintenance. This will include giving consideration, inter alia, to financial constraints, risks and Chapter’s role as a landlord and the custodian of a grade 1 listed building.
Lay Member of Chapter and Charity Trustee – Fundraising
Southwark Cathedral is seeking a new Lay Member of Chapter and Charity Trustee with experience in fundraising, partnership development or income generation.

You will play an active role in helping Chapter be outward facing, exploring opportunities for income generation, philanthropy and collaboration.

3. SUPPORT - We provide free, confidential support to young people through online communities, one-to-one mentoring and therapeutic services. Delivered by our team of psychologists, counsellors and psychotherapists, our support helps young people feel seen, heard, overcome challenges and access the tools they need to thrive
