The Irish Catholic Bishops’ Conference wishes to appoint a Senior Communications Officer to its Catholic Communications Office (CCO).
To help fulfil its aims more effectively, the Irish Catholic Bishops’ Conference has established various Episcopal Commissions, Departments, Councils, Agencies and other bodies which focus on specific tasks and areas of responsibility within the mission of the Church.
The CCO is responsible for initiating and facilitating media and wider communications activities of the Conference and its agencies, in both jurisdictions on the island, to serve the mission of the Church.
Bishops said, “This is an exciting time of renewal for the local and universal Church as it is currently undertaking a ‘Synodal Process’, initiated by Pope Francis, to enable the entire People of God discern together on how best to move forward as a more synodal, listening, Church in the long-term.
“Reporting to the Director of Communications, we are seeking an experienced and dynamic individual to join us as Senior Communications Officer. The successful candidate will be a key member of the team with the drive to innovate and shape traditional and digital communications. ”
Specific responsibilities will include:
- Working closely with colleagues from agencies of the Bishops’ Conference, clergy, religious, and laity to support their Gospel-inspired pastoral and spiritual ministry;
- Playing a vital role in enhancing the Church’s message internally, and its presence in the public square, by engaging audiences to promote the Church’s mission in Ireland’s evolving cultural landscape;
