SCHOOL CHAPLAIN

Part-time – 15 hours per week, term time only

The School is open to applications for this position from lay persons as well as ordained Ministers of the Anglican
Communion.

The School welcomes pupils of all faiths and none, and fosters mutual respect and understanding of the beliefs
and traditions of others. Pupils are encouraged to be reflective, questioning, thoughtful, and open minded in their
encounters with religious and spiritual traditions. As in all areas of the life of the School the emphasis is on
developing rounded individuals who value all members of the community.

Within this philosophy, the values, patterns, and worship of the Christian tradition are a significant part of our
inheritance at Warminster School and the Chaplain’s role in developing moral and spiritual awareness within the
pupil body is absolutely central. The successful candidate would have a deep commitment to education and to
making a contribution to the shaping of young people’s spiritual thinking and development.

Through their leadership of weekday and Sunday services the Chaplain plays a central role in raising within the
School community, awareness of and reflection on, some of the eternal ‘big questions’ of meaning and purpose,
as well as promoting key values such as kindness, empathy and integrity. The Chaplain’s ability to engage with
such issues in a philosophical and spiritual, but not exclusively Christian perspective, is vitally important. She/he
needs a sensitive appreciation of the truth that for all human beings – but for young people in particular – life is a
search for meaning. Within this search, few items are ‘off limits’.

Relationships:
The post holder is accountable to the Headmaster in all matters relating to this post. The post holder will work
closely with all members of the school community.

Purpose:
The Chaplain has responsibility in two key areas of school life: spiritual and pastoral. The following descriptions
should not be seen as discrete entities, but as closely interrelated, nor are they exhaustive.

Spirtual
The Chaplain is responsible for administering, officiating and preaching at School services, as well as occasional
services offered for different constituencies within the School community.  Services and main duties include:

•  Coordination of whole school assembly (Church), which takes place twice a week (Monday and Friday) with
the assistance of the Director of Music, Deputy Head, and Prefects. The Chaplain devises the weekly/termly
themes, speaks regularly him/herself and draws in staff, pupils, and guest speakers to also address the School.

•  Sunday evening services for boarders in St Boniface Chapel lasting about 30 minutes.  The Chaplain liaises

with the boarding staff and the Deputy Head in arranging and overseeing this.

•  Provide for all major School services i.e. Carol Service, the Leavers’ Service and Remembrance Service.
•  Lead an assembly for Prep children every week.
•  Beginning of term staff services in St Boniface Chapel and weekly staff prayer.
•  Lead a weekly service of Holy Communion during lunchtime.
•  Develop and sustain the chaplaincy by working with all those people who contribute to the Christian life of

the community including Religious Studies and Music departments.

•  Build and maintain links with the Diocese and local clergy, particularly with The Minster Church of St Denys.
•  Prepare candidates for Confirmation/Baptism.

•  Make provision for pupils from different faith groups where appropriate.
•  Support School events.

Pastoral
The Chaplain is also a key member of the pastoral team. Specific duties include:

•  Attend Pastoral Group meetings as appropriate.
•  Weekly visits to Boarding Houses.
•  Availability to offer 1:1 counsel to pupils and staff.
•  Coordination with the Health and Wellbeing Hub, Leadership Team, Boarding and House teams on specific

pastoral cases.

•  Leading on bereavement & support for whole school community in times of sadness (terminal

illness/bereavement etc).

•  To meet regularly with the Headmaster to discuss the welfare of the community, upcoming services and

associated chaplaincy events as well as providing a sounding board as required.

Are you interested in supporting people at immediate risk of rough sleeping and making a real difference to the lives of people experiencing homelessness in London?

Rough sleeping data shows that migrants make up more than 50% of the people rough sleeping in London. The MAPS service provides a rapid intervention to support clients who are migrants and rough sleeping in London to find a route into accommodation that is suitable and sustainable in the UK or elsewhere in the world. We are looking for someone to join our team as an Assessment and Reconnection Worker where you will:

• Provide rapid holistic assessments with migrants who are rough sleeping across London, helping to clarify entitlements and identify routes off the streets.
• Work with clients to produce person-centred, rights-based actions plans that meet their needs and resolve their rough sleeping in the UK or elsewhere in the world.
• Work closely with external agencies to ensure all clients’ needs are met. Many of our clients have multiple support needs. This may include experience of navigating the immigration and asylum systems, complex trauma, substance misuse and mental and physical health support needs.
• Advise and support other professionals working with migrants on options to resolve their clients’ homelessness.
• While your usual working hours will be from Monday to Friday, 9am-5pm, occasional work during early or late hours may occur in response to challenging situations and to prevent rough sleeping.

About you

We are a small team so try to maximise our resources and find creative solutions to resolve people’s homelessness. Due to the legislative context in which we work, accommodation options are often limited for our client group, and so we are looking for someone who can be flexible, proactive and is passionate about working migrants.

Ideally you would have experience of working with vulnerable people and an understanding of the needs and support requirements of this client group, particularly non-UK nationals.

We are particularly interested in hearing from you if you have lived experience of migration and/or speak additional languages to English.

We’d always like to hear from people who want to help transform lives. Not sure if you have the skills and experience you need for the role? Apply and we’ll let you know!

Senior Landscape Officer

£44,075 – £48,226 per annum
37 hours per week
Permanent

Help shape East Suffolk’s landscapes, places and communities.

East Suffolk is one of the largest and most diverse districts in the UK, from expansive coastlines and riverside estuaries to rural farmland, market towns and historic settlements. Our landscapes are a defining part of East Suffolk’s identity and play a vital role in climate resilience, biodiversity, placemaking, and the wellbeing of our communities.

We are looking for a Senior Landscape Officer to join our ambitious and multidisciplinary Specialist Services team, working alongside experts in design, heritage, arboriculture, ecology and rights of way. You’ll play a key role in ensuring that development across the district responds to landscape character, local distinctiveness, and environmental priorities.

This is an exciting time to join us, with major place-shaping projects underway, including new Garden Neighbourhoods, coastal regeneration projects, strategic infrastructure schemes (NSIPs) and district-wide design coding work.

What you’ll be doing

You will be the Council’s technical lead for landscape matters, providing expert advice on development proposals ranging from small sites to nationally significant projects. You will:

· Provide specialist landscape advice on planning applications, pre-applications and strategic growth sites.

· Assess Landscape and Visual Impact Assessments (LVIA), Landscape and Visual Appraisals, and other supporting information.

· Contribute to masterplans, Supplementary Planning Documents, Local Plans and Design Codes, embedding landscape principles and green/blue infrastructure from the outset.

· Negotiate with applicants and consultants to secure high-quality landscape outcomes and design enhancements.

· Represent the Council at Planning Committees, Design Review Panels, Public Inquiries and Hearings, acting as expert witness where required.

· Undertake site visits and condition compliance checks to monitor the delivery of approved schemes.

· Prepare clear, concise reports and briefings for senior officers, Members and committees.

· Lead or support community and stakeholder engagement on landscape and placemaking matters.

This is not just a casework role, you’ll influence projects and policies that will safeguard East Suffolk’s landscape for future generations.

About you

You’ll bring a strong blend of technical expertise, creativity and collaboration, including:

· Degree (or equivalent) in Landscape Architecture or related discipline.

· Chartered Member of the Landscape Institute (CMLI) — or working towards chartership.

· Significant experience assessing landscape and visual impacts within the planning process.

· Strong analytical, negotiation and communication skills with the ability to influence positive outcomes.

· Confidence presenting at committees and public meetings.

· A proactive, solutions-focused approach with a commitment to high-quality placemaking.

· A full driving licence and access to a vehicle for site visits across the district, with flexibility to occasionally work outside normal hours.

If you don’t meet every single requirement but feel you have the passion and potential to thrive in the role, we’d still love to hear from you.

Why join us?

At East Suffolk Council, you’ll be part of a supportive and forward-thinking team where landscape, design and placemaking are genuinely valued. We offer:

A multidisciplinary environment — work alongside landscape architects, ecologists, designers and heritage specialists.
Opportunities to develop your career, supported by training, professional memberships and CPD.
Involvement in high-profile design and planning projects with real impact on local communities.

Here are some of the main benefits:

· Great opportunities for training and development

· Generous leave entitlement (equivalent to 25 days a year, increasing to 31 days after 5 years’ service, plus bank holidays)

· Local government pension scheme

· Free car parking (for when you are working in the office)

· Discounts on mobile phones, computers, holiday and travel, fashion and clothing, health and beauty and many other products and services.

Closing date:  Weds 28th January – 12 noon
