The Diocese of York is the Church of England between the Rivers Humber and Tees, and from the Yorkshire coast westwards to around the A1. We are seeking to Live Christ’s Story (LCS) by becoming more like Christ, reaching people we currently don’t, growing churches of missionary disciples, and transforming our finances and structures.

We’re looking for a proactive and highly organised Assistant Administrator to join our Lifelong Learning Team. This is an exciting opportunity to play a key role in supporting continuing ministerial development and training events, working alongside a committed and dynamic team.

• Strong organisational skills and attention to detail
• Excellent communication and customer service abilities
• The capacity to prioritise and manage multiple tasks effectively
• A flexible, team-oriented approach
  
  
  

We are committed to equity, diversity, and inclusion and welcome applications from disabled candidates and those from UKME heritage as these groups are under-represented in our staff.
