As one of Kilkenny s leading historical attractions, the cathedral is enjoyed by in excess of 35,000 visitors annually. The Dean and Select Vestry are now seeking to recruit a sexton/verger, following the present incumbent s appointment to another position. St Canice s Cathedral is an equal opportunities employer. Applicants should send a covering letter, CV and the names and contact details of three referees to: Ms Elizabeth Keyes Cathedral Administrator St Canice s Cathedral Coach Rd Kilkenny Tel: Fax: info@stcanicescathedral.com Closing date for receipt of applications: 28 th June 2011
2 THE CHURCH OF IRELAND The Church of Ireland is a self-governing part of the Anglican Communion, in communion with the See of Canterbury. It is led by the Archbishop of Armagh (Primate of All Ireland) and the Archbishop of Dublin (Primate of Ireland). It maintains a liturgical pattern of worship, observing the feasts and fasts of the Catholic liturgical year. For more information about the Church of Ireland, please visit the following website at ST CANICE S CATHEDRAL Prior to his death in 1202, it was the vision of Bishop Felix O Delaney that the monastic settlement that was St Canice s should incorporate a cathedral church. Since the 1120 s the see of Ossory had been moved from Aghaboe to Kilkenny but no new cathedral church was erected. The bishop was one of the few who realised the significance of the Norman settlement of the region. The 13 th century cathedral of St Canice s is the second longest cathedral in Ireland. The site of which the cathedral stands has been a site of Christian worship since the 6 th century. Apart from its role as a place of worship, the cathedral is at the heart of the cultural life of Kilkenny. The cathedral is used during the Kilkenny Arts Festival, each August and for concerts and cultural events throughout the year. We hope that those who visit the cathedral and spend time within the hallowed walls, will see the visual message of this age old church and within their hearts feel the message of Christ, who is the yesterday, today and forever. THE CATHEDRAL CONSTITUTION The cathedral is governed by the constitution as agreed by General Synod. The cathedral select vestry has the responsibility of the financial and administrative affairs of the cathedral and is served by a number of sub-committees having specific responsibility for certain area of cathedral life, e.g. Music, Property, Finance and Administration and who make recommendations to the Vestry for implementation. The Dean and Chapter are responsible for the liturgical elements of the cathedral s life. The cathedral has two full-time priests, the Dean, The Very Reverend Katharine Poulton and Vicar, The Reverend Elaine Murray. The Chapter members (honorary) and other clergy from the diocese also assist the regular services in the cathedral. A full-time administrator and five further staff (both full and part-time) are also employed. KILKENNY Located in the South East and famous as an international centre for contemporary art and culture, the county of Kilkenny is also located in an ideal central location of Ireland - providing a perfect stopover for travellers between Dublin and Cork, or Rosslare and the West.
3 The city itself is steeped in history. Dominated by superb ancient buildings culminating in the magnificent Kilkenny Castle and St Canice s cathedral, it brims with character. Winding slipways lead from bustling shopping streets to quiet corners, and clues to the fascinating story of Kilkenny lie in every architectural feature. The county spreads its green mantle from the city through river valleys and undulating hills. Exceptionally rich in heritage, it is completely undiscovered, yet filled with dramatic landscapes and historical treasures. Now home to a vibrant creative community, Kilkenny is an extraordinary meeting point for modern culture and ancient history.
