An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced administrator to work with Archdeacon to provide an efficient and effective administrative and organisational support service that promotes effective communication internally and externally with archdeaconries, deaneries, parishes and key stakeholders.

The Diocese of Exeter is currently operating a hybrid pattern of office- and home-based working; as we emerge from the pandemic, the normal place of work will be diocesan offices, combined with some home working.

Interpersonal skills
Relationship building
Parish clergy and lay support
Information and data management
Written and oral communication
Working with volunteers
