Introduction

We are seeking a professional, confident and compassionate safeguarding practitioner to join our Safeguarding Team. This important role supports the Diocesan Safeguarding Officer and serves as the designated Cathedral Safeguarding Advisor, helping ensure that safeguarding is embedded at the heart of the life of Truro Cathedral.

As with the wider Church of England, the Diocese is undergoing a period of transition and development, and safeguarding remains central to our mission. You will bring emotional intelligence, strong communication skills, and the professional integrity needed to instil confidence and provide high‑quality safeguarding support.

This is a challenging but rewarding opportunity for someone with safeguarding experience who is ready to contribute to a complex and meaningful environment.

At the Diocese of Truro, we really value work-life balance and employee wellbeing, have a friendly and supportive working environment and are committed to encouraging your development. Find out more here about working for us here.
