Income & Funding Manager
Income & Funding Manager Application Pack 01924 373923 [email protected] www.wakefieldcathedral.org.uk Application Pack – Income & Funding Manager Contents • Introduction 2 • The Cathedral 3 • The Role 3 • The Postholder 4 • Hours 4 • Annual Leave 4 • Pension 5 • Salary 5 • Probationary period 5 • Application process 5 • Job description 6 • Person specification 7 Introduction Thank you for your interest in the post of Income & Funding Manager at Wakefield Cathedral. We see this new senior role as vital to building up the capacity and sustainability of the cathedral’s ministry, and even more so as we emerge from some of the most challenging months the nation has known in peacetime for several generations. Wakefield Cathedral is not wealthy. In common with its sister cathedrals, it receives no statutory funding and is dependent on generating its own income to support its work. We are fortunate to receive discretionary funding from the Church Commissioners which covers around 30% of our current annual expenditure; the remainder is drawn from voluntary congregational giving, donations, grant applications, fundraising and income generated from events. The person appointed will undoubtedly need resilience and persistence as well as experience. They will also be joining a team of people fully committed to the flourishing of the cathedral’s ministry at the heart of the city and the wider Diocese of Leeds. I hope that the pack stimulates you to consider applying, and we look forward to hearing from you. The Very Revd Simon Cowling Dean of Wakefield Joyful – Generous – Inclusive 2 Application Pack – Income & Funding Manager The Cathedral The Cathedral stands on the site of a Saxon church in the centre of Wakefield. -

REACHING out a Celebration of the Work of the Choir Schools’ Association
REACHING OUT A celebration of the work of the Choir Schools’ Association The Choir Schools’ Association represents 46 schools attached to cathedrals, churches and college chapels educating some 25,000 children. A further 13 cathedral foundations, who draw their choristers from local schools, hold associate membership. In total CSA members look after nearly 1700 boy and girl choristers. Some schools cater for children up to 13. Others are junior schools attached to senior schools through to 18. Many are Church of England but the Roman Catholic, Scottish and Welsh churches are all represented. Most choir schools are independent but five of the country’s finest maintained schools are CSA members. Being a chorister is a huge commitment for children and parents alike. In exchange for their singing they receive an excellent musical training and first-class academic and all-round education. They acquire self- discipline and a passion for music which stay with them for the rest of their lives.
