St. Mary’s, Ambleside is looking for a strategic, organised, and faith-filled Operations Lead to help a growing church run smoothly and sustainably. This is a pivotal leadership role at the heart of a fresh vision, enabling ministry and mission through effective systems, volunteer leadership, and team coordination.
You’ll lead on day-to-day operations including HR, safeguarding, building management, governance, events, and comms – all while helping to shape a strong, prayerful culture. You'll oversee our buildings in Ambleside and Langdale, support fundraising efforts, and help develop tools like ChurchSuite to streamline how we work.
We’re forming a new team including a Worship Leader and Children & Families Lead, and working closely with Ambleside Parish Centre to serve the wider community. You’ll be involved in communicating vision, supporting Sunday worship, and helping small groups and outreach thrive.
