The diocese is in the process of reshaping its support team to ensure there is a staffing structure in shape to support the diocese’s vision of Living and Telling the Story and deliver against its priorities of putting mission and evangelism at the heart of all it does, aligning resources towards mission and to identify, develop and release the gifts of all people. The reshaping process has also been prompted by the need to achieve savings due to the financial pressures we face as a Diocese from reductions in Parish Share income, exacerbated by the impact of the Covid pandemic.
A proposed new structure has been shared with staff and a consultation process is underway with staff whose roles are at risk of redundancy, with the aim of avoiding or reducing any staff redundancy.
The consultation will take place over the next two months after which the new structure will be finalised and shared.
Please pray for all involved in the re-shaping.
