About this role
We are delivering Heritage@HTH, a £4.5 million restoration and heritage engagement project made possible with funding from The National Lottery Heritage Fund. The project combines a major programme of capital works to conserve and improve Holy Trinity Hastings, safeguarding its historic fabric and enhancing access, with an ambitious programme of heritage activities designed to engage people of all ages and backgrounds. Through learning, volunteering, interpretation, events and community partnerships, we aim to
enable people to discover the many stories and treasures of Holy Trinity Hastings. These stories connect the people who shaped the church we see today with those who continue to make it a vibrant place of worship
and a community hub serving the people of Hastings. We hope that engaging with our church, its heritage and its treasures will encourage people to discover their own purpose and place within this community, creating a renewed sense of pride, belonging and hope inspired by this remarkable building.
At HTH we recognise the importance of diversity, equity and inclusion, and we value everyone for who they are and what they can contribute. We aim to recruit staff and volunteers who come from a diverse background and reflect our communities and our audiences. We welcome applications from people of all faiths and of no faith.
Our Core Aims
- To ensure that our congregation, users, visitors, and our diverse community understand and appreciate the significant role that Holy Trinity Hastings has played in the development of Hastings.
- To raise the profile of HTH Church as one of the most important heritage buildings in Hastings and thereby attract and welcome new visitors to discover the mission of the church through the stories and people, the treasures and architecture of this special place.
- To work with hard to reach and under-represented sections of the local community that are relevant to our work in Hastings and are currently excluded from engaging with their heritage through lack of awareness, opportunity or resource.
This Project Coordinator will support the internal team of staff and volunteers on the PCC and Heritage Steering Group with the day to day internal administration of the project.
During the Delivery Stage they will work with the Heritage Engagement Officer to build on the partnerships already forged during the Development Phase.
