1. JOB PURPOSE The Chapter Clerk is the chief lay executive responsible for implementation of the decisions and directions of Chapter and the efficient operation of its activities. The role involves active support to the Chapter's decision-making processes by way of sound advice and wise counsel. The role includes liaison with the Companions and Officers of the Order of the Garter and high-level planning of state ceremonial events and coordination between all elements of the College of St George and the Royal Household. 2. JOB CONTEXT The College of St George was founded by Edward III to pray for and support the Sovereign and, thereby, the whole land. Daily Prayer has been offered by the College in unbroken succession through the centuries. At the heart of the College is St George's Chapel, the spiritual home of the Knights of the Garter, where daily worship continues to be offered at least three times a day. The College also includes St George's School (with approximately 300 pupils, about 20 of whom are Chapel Choristers), St George's House (a centre for consultations bringing people together to discuss matters of moral or ethical significance to make the world a better place), a Library and set of Archives increasingly used for research, the Military Knights of Windsor, and various departments including the Music Department, with its world-class Choir. The Clergy and Chapel of St George were granted exemption from Provincial and Diocesan authority by the Pope in 1352, and this direct relationship with the Sovereign was maintained at the Reformation in the form of the Chapel's Royal Peculiar status. As such, it is an independent, self-financing institution responsible for the maintenance of St George's Chapel and its surrounding buildings making up approximately one quarter of Windsor Castle. Discreet, prudent but determined fundraising is an important and ongoing task mostly undertaken by others and the Chapter Clerk actively supports that work. Well over 1 million people visit St George's Chapel and its shop in the Cloisters each year. As the Chapel is within the walls of Windsor Castle the visitors' care and welcome is coordinated between St George's and Royal Collection Trust. 3.

There is a considerable level of autonomy to the post, with the majority of the work being unsupervised; but there is proper accountability to the Chapter and the work can be subject to wider scrutiny whether in terms of paperwork and systems, the law, media coverage, an event backfiring, staff dissatisfaction etc. 6. WORKING CONTACTS Close working relationship with the Dean as Dean of College and Chair of Chapter, Register of the Order of the Garter and Senior Domestic Chaplain to The King.
