The Diocese of Derby is a significant and complex organisation facing challenge and opportunity.

The Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor (DSA) is instrumental in shaping the culture and operations of safeguarding delivery within this environment.

Safeguarding is at the heart of our vision of the Kingdom of God: Good News for all. A safer church is good news for our communities and those in our congregations.

Our diocese is committed to continually improving practice in Safeguarding. The DSA will bring experience of working in a safeguarding environment and will demonstrate the skills to raise the safeguarding profile and continue development of a healthy safeguarding culture.

The information pack provides an outline of the role, the skills and experience that we are looking for, together with some further background to the post and the Diocese.
