The Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Southwark is currently looking to recruit an HR Manager to join a small but committed team who look after 350 staff across the whole diocese, which covers all of London south of the Thames and Kent.  

Reporting to the Director of Finance, this is a genuine generalist role and incredibly varied. A Payroll and HR Administrator reports to the HR Manager. The primary responsibilities of the role are to support parish priests to use best practice in recruiting and managing their staff. The role operates primarily through advice, guidance and influence, particularly within parishes, and ensures that the Archdiocese meets its legal, pastoral and moral obligations as an employer.  

Additionally, this job plays a vital role in enabling the current Called to Bear Fruit renewal initiative by ensuring that people policies, leadership practices and employment arrangements support collaboration between clergy and lay faithful, encourage shared responsibility for mission, and promote a healthy, welcoming and professional working culture across the Archdiocese.
