Leeds, Leeds, United Kingdom St Richard's Church, Ham Full time £30,000 - £50,000 per year

Job description

We were delighted to be awarded £248,000 by The National Lottery Heritage Fund to develop our £3.6m heritage project 'St Richard's 60:60 – celebrating our first 60 years and preparing for the next'. The project is to restore our iconic Modern building and celebrate the first 60 years of our church as a launchpad for the future. We are now appointing a Project Manager, Activity Plan consultant and a Fundraising Manager to develop our proposals. A Business Plan consultant and Evaluation consultant will be appointed in the New Year.

St Richard's church was built in 1964 in the heart of a new housing estate alongside a new Primary School. It is an iconic building with a strong presence forming part of the Ham Riverside identity. It has many significant architectural and artistic features acknowledged by its Grade II listing and its timber hyperbolic paraboloid roof is one of the few remaining examples in the country. However the roof covering is failing, and the unique timber shell construction is rapidly deteriorating. The seriousness of this is evidenced by its inclusion on Historic England's Heritage at Risk Register. Our goal is to give our church a secure and sustainable future as a home for a thriving church and a welcoming space for community groups and activities. Our Heritage Fund project will repair and restore the building and provide engagement opportunities bringing its heritage to life for visitors while meeting community needs.

As Project Manager you will oversee and manage the development phase of the 'St Richard's 60:60' project and prepare for the next, delivery phase following our successful bid for Development Stage funding from the Heritage Fund, reporting to the Project Steering Group. You will be expected to provide effective leadership to both the internal and external project team, motivate, and develop skills and understanding. You will ensure the efficient financial management of the project budget and ensure adequate arrangements are in place to manage risk and bring any areas of concern to the attention of the Project Steering Group. You will establish effective and effecient communications between members of the team and external stakeholders and act as an advocate for the project.
