This note is to highlight our need for men and women called by God into this literature ministry. Send an email to personnel at clcbookshops dot com
for more details.

We urgently need a number of suitably qualified people for various roles. Please note the posts are only part-funded by CLC. Some personal support will be needed from friends, family, churches or personal means. The roles are not salaried and do not consitute employment. Please read the last section for more details.

Head of Finance - Based near Winchester, the Head of Finance requires the necessary skills and experience for this computerised job, which entails all the activities usually associated with buying and selling, plus annual reporting to the Charity Commission and dealing with designated and undesignated gift income.

Bookshops - Opportunities exist in many cities. In addition to general sales staff, some trainee manager positions are also open .

Wholesale - a number of openings exist for customer service duties, not just picking orders.

IT Support - This part-time role would require some travel for the successful applicant who has the relevant IT experience and knowledge. When not dealing with IT matters the successful applicant would ideally be based at our wholesale distribution centre.

Website Design & Development - The applicant will have suitable website experience and knowledge so as to be able to keep the website fresh and updated via backgrounds, banners, pop-ups etc.

Publicity & Design - An opportunity exists for a versatile person with the right skills and who can combine this role with other activities according to the needs at the time.

===================
CLC is well-known for its non-employee policy here in the UK.
A fact not appreciated by many is that CLC has employees in each of the other 58 nations where we are present. The UK and the US ministries maintained the support system begun way back in the 1940’s. But even CLC USA adopted a salary structure a few years ago, while still maintaining their current voliunteer system, so as to recruit bookshop staff. Like our colleagues over the pond, CLC UK now has a hybrid support system for its workers. For the time being we are not considering taking on additional employees.
Funding for our volunteer staff comes from two main sources: while CLC can cover some domestic costs, friends, family, churches and/or one's own funds supply the rest. There is also a monthly amount paid out from a fund made up non-designated gifts to CLC.
This support system has enabled us to make donations to many and varied book-related charitable organisations and projects around the world, plus the UK ministry has pioneered, developed and maintained several CLC ministries worldwide.
