Job Opportunity: AIF are seeking a new Executive Officer

    Doral Hayes • July 11, 2022

    The Association of Interchurch Families (AIF) is seeking to appoint a part-time Executive Officer

    The Executive Officer will work with the trustees in delivering the Association’s three-fold mission of providing an information service for interchurch families and others; a pastoral support network; and a “voice in the churches”. Read more about our mission here .


    During the pandemic, AIF embarked on a strategy of digital evangelisation, using online resources to improve its engagement with both its members and those who want to know more about being in an interchurch family.  Implementation of this strategy is still in its early days and there are many opportunities yet to be exploited by the new Executive Officer who will help to promote and deliver the strategy as a key enabler of the Association’s mission - while also providing the full range of executive functions necessary for it to operate effectively as a charity.


    The successful candidate will be:


    • Organised, efficient, and outward-looking with the skills and personal attributes necessary to support a small charity which relies heavily on volunteers. 
    • Experienced and comfortable in working with websites, digital platforms and databases.

    ·      Committed to the advancement of ecumenical relations and church unity.


    This is a part-time post for 10 hours per week with the possibility of additional hours being worked as required and by negotiation. The FTE salary will be £30,000 (pro-rata, based on a 37-hour week). 


    The role is home-based. The post-holder will be expected to work flexibly to suit the requirements of both the job and their personal situation. 


    Application Arrangements:

    To discuss the role in more detail with the Chair of Trustees, please email your request with your telephone number to chair@interchurchfamilies.org.uk  and he will call you as soon as he is able. Please include any particular times to avoid (if appropriate). 


    Closing date for applications:        8.00 am on 15 August 2022

    Interviews (on zoom):                      w/c 15 August (date to be confirmed, but there is flexibility in the scheduling of interviews;
