You will acti as first point of contact for our clergy, parishes and staff to support their communications work, including support with digital, video, social and traditional media. You will also be a point of contact for media enquiries, as well as assisting with urgent/crisis communications.
You will ensure the diocesan website meets the needs of our audiences by working collaboratively with colleagues to ensure the content is up-to-date, fresh and relevant, whilst also providing an analytical approach to web performance.
With a relevant professional or educational background, you should have excellent written and verbal communication skills and be capable of writing engaging media content, including news stories and press releases.

As part of this role, it is important for you to maintain a high degree of personal visibility around the Diocese in order to build excellent relationships with clergy, parishioners, local communities, local leaders and media contacts. Therefore, sympathy with our values and the ability to relate to church communities, volunteers from a variety of traditions, and other key stakeholders, is essential.
After a period of training, you will be required to be on call one weekend a month and to work occasional weekends and evenings, with reasonable prior notice.
Canterbury Diocese is the oldest diocese in England, stretching from Maidstone to Thanet, the Isle of Sheppey to the Romney Marsh. We have 350 miles of coastline with historic ports and seaside resorts, alongside rural communities, market towns and commuter-belt urban developments. Affluent areas often sit alongside pockets of major deprivation, offering an exciting and challenging mission context.
At the heart of all we do is a vision of transformation for ourselves and our communities: no one can encounter God and remain unchanged. In the Diocese of Canterbury, we want to increasingly become a Christian community transformed through encounter with Christ, growing and overflowing to transform and bless the families, homes and communities we serve: Changed Lives, Changing Lives.
Closing date: 29 January 2025.
