Job Description

The Friends of Friendless Churches (FoFC) is a small charity with a big task. For the past 67 years, we’ve been rescuing, repairing, and campaigning for redundant historic places of worship all across England and Wales. The challenges facing churches are mounting, and our work is becoming more important than ever.

As our Deputy Director, you’ll be responsible for the smooth day-to-day operations of our office with the assistance of our Operations Manager. You will be the lead on our financial accounting system, processing payments, reconciling accounts and organising financial reports for the Board.

You will improve our membership programme, develop and implement a programme of events, and grow our membership. Membership is a key source of income for the charity and there is ample opportunity for a dynamic and creative individual to help grow our membership base.

You’ll be supporting our Director, with whom you’ll work closely, but you will also work and collaborate with our other team members who support volunteers and organise buildings maintenance. Our team is small but busy, so it is essential that you are resourceful, self-motivated, highly organised and an independent thinker. You will support the Director in all her activities, which range from fundraising to managing building contracts, and raising FoFC’s profile in the sector. You will deputise for the Director in her absence.
