We are seeking someone to help us take our communications to the next level. We have a wide range of activities, which all derive from our core value: being here for you. We want to ensure that our communications tell a coherent story, grounded in faith and lived out through creativity and action.

This is a new post, reporting directly to the Vicar/Chief Executive and working across our activities - church, arts, events and marketing, and community engagement.

St John the Evangelist is an inclusive church in central London. We're proud of our growing reputation as one of the most inclusive and affirming churches in London.

Through our charity, The Bridge at Waterloo, we provide support, creative activities, English language conversation, and other activities for people seeking community in the UK, people experiencing homelessness and for young people and other local people for whom life's challenges are acute.

We have recently completed a major renovation project and have excellent facilities for concerts and music making with a strong focus on classical music. The church is noted as a superb venue for all kinds of performance. Since the renovation our cultural, community and faith engagement has expanded significantly.

Our worship is in the Anglican catholic tradition. Our congregation is made up of LGBTQIA+ people, married people, single people, children and adults. We offer a warm welcome to students studying in London.

We run the annual Waterloo Festival, a fringe of international, national and local creativity. We provide meeting and performance space for hundreds of arts groups and charities. Our volunteer gardeners make our Churchyard an oasis of beauty and calm and we are committed to resisting climate change.
