REF-215826
The Diocese of Truro is going through a major period of change. This new and broad-ranging role has been created to support both our staff and clergy manage the many different people aspects of this change as well as strengthen our existing HR offer.
Reporting to the Director of HR, you will provide high quality operational and administrative HR support to staff and clergy on a range of areas. You will also work to support change and cultural initiatives and projects, including those relating to wellbeing, policies, IT, performance management, case work and recruitment.
This, however, is not your average HR role. In addition to our 50 staff, you will also provide HR support to clergy, parishes and volunteers, and so will need to be up for the challenge of learning about the canon and ecclesiastical laws that governs those in clergy roles, and working with the National Church of England.
You don’t need to be a practicing Christian, but you do need to be passionate about providing and developing an excellent HR service and have the credibility, skills and knowledge to be able to work with a huge range of people at all levels, together with an eye for detail and excellent written and IT skills.
This is a developmental role, and we are willing to support the right candidate to achieve a recognised qualification in HR.
For more information on what we offer as an employer see our website.
If this role sounds like the change and challenge you are looking for, please apply via the Pathways website by midnight on 18 August 2024.
Interviews will be held on Monday 5 September 2024 at our current offices in Truro.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.
