Parish Safeguarding Lead, Clifton Parish

Part-time 15hrs per week / £12,857 + 5% pension contribution / Permanent (subject to funding)

Clifton Parish is a huge, lively parish, full of opportunities and potential. It comprises two Church of England churches, a huge housing estate, a small village, 6 primary schools, a special school, a secondary school and a university campus.

There are also churches of other denominations, shops and health and leisure facilities and the area is served well with buses and trams.

Over the last 6 years, links with schools and the local community have developed, faith has been nurtured and grown and many people have come to know Jesus for the first time.

We are looking for a skilled compassionate yet resilient safeguarding practitioner to join our dynamic team.

Key tasks include:

• Safe recruitment of volunteers
• Working closely with the diocesan safeguarding team and statutory organisations on new and ongoing cases
• Pastoral Support
