Diocesan Vacancy:
Director of Education
From 1st September 2012
This wonderful opportunity to work in a senior leadership role in Catholic Education arises as a result of the retirement of the current Director after 11 years of service. It offers a unique and stimulating role for a practising Catholic with a successful record of leadership in education and an understanding of the vital contribution of Catholic schools to the mission of the Church.
The Diocese of Menevia, therefore, is seeking to recruit an exceptional individual to lead and develop the Diocesan Education Department which is responsible for the implementation of diocesan policy and strategy for Catholic schools within the Diocese. The Diocese requires compliance with current education legislation according to the Welsh Government, together with full knowledge and understanding of the Catholic faith. The Director will work closely with the CES and will be responsible for relationships with WG, LAs and other relevant organisations.
The successful applicant will provide leadership, vision, professional advice and strategic direction to support the statutory and canonical work of the Bishop and Diocesan Trustees in promoting and safeguarding the interests of Catholic Education and ensuring the highest standards of education in Catholic Schools.
The salary and pension benefits payable will be circa £32k on a 3 day week.
