St George the Martyr is growing. We are looking for an experienced operational leader who can help us build the organisation around that growth and turn vision into practical reality.
This is a senior leadership role at the heart of a vibrant, world-diverse parish in central London. Our congregation has grown, new ministries have taken root, Holy Hour has created a distinctive new space for worship and encounter, and the Borough Food Cooperative has become an increasingly important part of our relationship with the neighbourhood.
There is a great deal of life here. The question for us now is how we develop the people, systems, resources and organisational capacity needed to sustain it.
We are therefore appointing a Director of Operations / Parish Clerk to become the senior lay operational leader of St George the Martyr.
Working closely with the Rector, Churchwardens and PCC, you will take substantial responsibility for the effective day-to-day running and development of the parish. You will help turn our Mission Action Plan and wider ambitions into practical plans, strengthen our finances and governance, lead staff, improve systems, oversee significant projects and ensure that good decisions become reality.
This is not an administrative support role. We are looking for someone who enjoys making organisations work better, can see both the bigger picture and the practical detail, and is comfortable exercising real responsibility and delegated authority.

The closing date is 12 October
Interviews will take place in person at St George the Martyr the following week
We care deeply about inclusive working practices and diverse teams and strongly encourage candidates of all different backgrounds and identities to apply.
