We are looking for a new Chair of Finance, who is also an ex-officio non-executive member of Chapter, our governing body, due to the retirement of our current Chair.
In late 2023 the Cathedral adopted a new governance structure and will become a registered charity in March 2024 when all members of Chapter, the governing body, will become Trustees.
As a non-executive trustee your role will be vital in the oversight of the overall management and administration of the Cathedral and ensuring that the Vision and Strategy formed in 2020 remains relevant. Working collaboratively with other trustees you will give strategic direction to the Cathedral, set overall policy, define goals and evaluate outcomes.
The role of Chair of Finance is both strategic and operational. The Chair works strategically to assist Chapter in ensuring good financial oversight, but also has a practical hands-on role working with the Chief Operating Officer and Finance Officer to enable the effective financial management of the Cathedral.
The successful candidate must have recent and relevant financial experience and a recognised financial qualification is preferred. The role may either suit someone who is currently working in a financial field or who has very recently retired from such in the last two or three years. They will be either a communicant member of the Church of England, or of a church with which it is in communion and an enhanced DBS check will also be required. A full induction programme and ongoing training is offered to enable members to deliver their responsibilities.
Portsmouth Cathedral, the Cathedral of the Sea, has been the seat of the Bishop of Portsmouth since the creation of the Diocese of Portsmouth in 1927. It has a distinctive history and role in a great maritime city, and serves a diverse diocese that stretches from the Isle of Wight to East Hampshire.
We are committed to growing in diversity and inclusion and seek to reflect this in Chapter. We welcome and encourage applications from people of all backgrounds.
Portsmouth Cathedral is a member of Inclusive Church.
