The marvelous monks of Norcia, Italy, have a job opening for a Director of Communications.
Wow. It’s a new era of the world when a monastery needs a director of communications. Once upon a time, monks reached out to the world through their scriptoria. Now they reach out to the world through best-selling chant CDs and websites.
I suppose this role will help the monks stay focused on what they really need to do: “ora et labora” is, after all, their thing.

Sounds like a job for a Jesuit burnt out from teaching at a business school.
Do the Benedictines of Norcia have any affiliated oblates? It would probably make sense for such a person to have a spiritual connection to St. Benedict’s monks.
Hidden One, according to this newsletter, they do. http://osbnorcia.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/fall2012en.pdf Page 3.
The monks of Norcia are awesome. Hope they find someone good for this position. I’ll happily set up an import company to distribute their beer in the USA. Only take 5% of the profits. Though, who’s to say I won’t drink all the product. :)
One must have expertise in Italian and English, as well as 6-8 years experience working with religious groups, and graphic arts skills. I have been looking for work in the EU for six years and have not been able to get a group to sponsor me on the other side of the pond. I wonder if Norcia has more influence than most religious groups, who cannot get permission for Americans to work abroad? Very interesting. God bless their search
