Change is never easy and changing one of the countries oldest and most established institutions presents a particular challenge. Yet the Diocese of Liverpool recognises that if we are to be a bigger church making a bigger difference we need a programme of organisational change.
We have that programme funded by the Church Commissioners. We have a name Fit for Mission which encapsulates our vision of enabling the local church to decide how they grow. We have a plan, pilot groups of enthusiastic church members and leaders and a determination to succeed.
We now need someone to make it happen.
We are looking for a person who can bring excellent organisational change management skills and match it with a sensitivity to understand the particular needs of the church. We are looking for someone who can deliver appropriate timescales and milestones. You will be able to plan well, communicate effectively and change tack appropriately as conditions alter. You will measure what is being achieved using that analytical data to inform future progress.
You will be at the heart of something special and ground-breaking with a real opportunity to leave your mark.
Fit for Mission is a pioneering programme of change from the inside out. Through it we aim to remove the blocks that prevent the local church from growing creating a confident vibrant church community across our diocese.
