Community Development Worker

Faith Network for Manchester (FN4M) is looking to engage a Community Development Worker (CDW) to lead on a project commissioned by Manchester City Council’s Engagement and Equity Team to establish a Manchester Faith, Belief and Interfaith Covenant.

The CDW will coordinate a small team of volunteers and sessional workers to promote this and to develop mapping work of the faith and interfaith communities across Manchester for the benefit of Manchester City Council, the Manchester Integrated Care Partnership and its faith communities, which will include partnership building with other stakeholders.

The Community Development Worker and the team will set up and facilitate a series of workshops, focus groups, listening sessions and roundtables between May and October 2026 (at least one a month, two where possible) utilising clusters of faith and belief groups based on geographic location, faith denominations and various special interest groups to inform their recommendations of how the Manchester Faith, Belief and Interfaith Covenant should be developed.
