Pray, Grow, Serve 2035
Pray, Grow, Serve 2035 is our 10-year strategic plan based on the Diocese of Exeter’s vision to grow in prayer, make new disciples and serve the people of Devon with joy.
To do this we want to develop a culture of lifelong learning, to be equipped and enabled, and to be missional in our DNA. The learning hub will be the place everyone turns to for inspiration, for courses and information, and to find that next step that might help us grow as we respond to God’s call on our lives. Once we have developed the learning hub, we will join a diocesan consortium sharing content, learning, and continuing the development of our hubs to meet our changing needs.
The Role
The Learning Hub Lead Officer will be instrumental in the introduction of the new learning hub, helping us to shape it and populate it before co-ordinating its launch. They will support trainers in translating existing courses into online offerings, and themselves design and develop new self-directed learning opportunities. They will enable us to target courses to key groups in the diocese and track the learning of individuals so that we can support their lifelong learning more effectively.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
The Learning Hub Lead Officer will combine confidence in using learning platforms with an understanding of how adults learn and how to engage new participants. They will collaborate widely across departments in the diocesan offices who may want to use the platform for their courses and content. In particular they will work closely with the Communications Team to enable integration with a newly constructed website and the diocesan social media campaigns.
Working Pattern
The Diocese of Exeter is currently operating a hybrid pattern of office- and home-based working; as we emerge from the pandemic, the normal place of work will be diocesan offices in central Exeter with the possibility of some home working if requested. There is the expectation of occasional travel throughout the county of Devon (including Plymouth and Torbay), occasionally on evenings and at weekends.
