Bible Society believes the Bible is God’s gift for God’s world. We share it because we believe it changes lives for good. We want Christians to be confident in the Bible’s truthfulness and reliability, and we want to change how people talk about it in wider society and invite them to see it as a source of wisdom and joy.

We are working to make the Bible available and accessible for all. We translate the Bible linguistically and culturally, delivering content that enables people to engage with the Scriptures in many different ways. As part of our global mission, we work in partnership to make the Scriptures better known in around 240 countries and territories.

2025 saw the public launch of the Patmos Initiative, a ground-breaking global study of attitudes and behaviours towards the Bible. This research is informing our global strategy to mobilise Bible Engagement, identifying and meeting the greatest mission needs in every context. Our International team are now looking for someone to deliver emerging strategies through our relationships with Bible Societies in the MENA, Central Asia and the Sahel clusters.

We’re looking for a creative, innovative and resilient self-starter with experience of designing, managing and monitoring international, large-scale, donor-funded projects within a multi-cultural team. The ideal candidate will have an understanding of how the Bible can transform lives, a heart for mission, and an in-depth knowledge of, and sensitivity to, the mission contexts in MENA, Central Asia and the Sahel
