The post holder will be required to work within both the Property Services Team and Acquisitions and Disposals Team. This includes:

The North region currently consists of the following Diocese; Liverpool, Manchester, Sheffield, Blackburn, Leeds, Durham, Carlisle and Newcastle. As the portfolio changes though property sales/purchases it may on occasion be necessary to redefine the Region boundaries.
