Meet The Staff Team
We have a dedicated staff team at CMJ UK who work alongside a team of volunteers to help bring the good news of Messiah to the Jewish population here in the UK. With a mixture of staff working from the CMJ UK Office, making visits across the UK, or in Jewish communities, they all play a vital role in carrying out the mandate we believe God has given us.

Oliver
Engagement Manager
Oliver is married to Rose and with their three children they live in North Yorkshire. His faith journey began at 16 when a school friend invited him to a church meeting. A Dutch couple spoke of having a relationshiip with God and soon afterwards, Oliver too became a believer. Whilst studying languages at university, he met a Jewish believer called Mike who had a vast library of books and it was from there that Oliver’s love for the Jewish people began. Prior to his current role in CMJ, Oliver came to work for Chosen People Minitries through someone he met whilst attending Leeds Messianic Fellowship. He has engaged in various outreaches, notably amongst the Jewish people of New York City and throughout the UK too. He is now completeting a Master of Divinity degree with a specialism in Messianic Jewish Studies through Biola University. Oliver is a clear communicator of God’s Word and he regularly speaks in churches. He describes himself as a gentile believer with a Jewish heart. He enjoys Outdoor walks, photography and a good French cheese.

Sally-Anne
Events Manager
Hello, I am so thankful that Jesus equips me for the role of Events and Management Support daily. ‘May you walk faithfully as God guides your steps in wonder filled exploration.’ Psalm 37:23. I am a Mansfield girl born and bred, moved away for a few years then returned home. I met the Lord at the age of 16 years, this experience was very significant as I saw something in someone…wanted what they had…only to find out it was our Lord and Saviour and I pray that I am like that…there is something noticeably different about me. I am a Mum, daughter, sister, aunt, cousin (soon to be wife) and friend to many. All my relationships are very important to me and I try to put Jesus in the centre of all I do. I look forward to seeing you all along this enjoyable journey with Jesus.
Katie
Administration, Mailouts and Bookshop
Hi, I’m Katie. I work in a part-time administrative role at the CMJ office. I also look after mailouts and books. It’s great to be involved with such an important mission, as well as a huge opportunity for me to learn more about our Jewish roots and for my faith to grow. I’m married to Graham and have two children, Grace & Daniel and very much enjoy busy family life! CMJ has been my first employment in 7 years after choosing to stay at home to focus on raising my children. This has been an answer to prayer, getting ready for a new challenge I was praying to find something that would be compatible with a Christian life, my previous high-pressure role in retail was not the way I wanted to return. Finding this little job seemed to come out of the blue and is such a perfect fit for faith and family life and has been an incredible blessing! I enjoy walking with family and friends, fun days out with Graham and the children, picnics, cooking and I thrive on the challenge of helping out in our church’s Sunday School. I also enjoy reading, although since starting here my ‘to read’ pile needs more work as it has grown considerably!
Phil
Teacher / Engager / Bible Influencer
Phil is married to Marion and they have two grown-up children both, currently, studying at different universities. Phil made his commitment to Jesus at the age of 19 through the ministry of his local Anglican church. After a two-year church planting project in rural Kenya, Phil went to Bible College where he met and married Marion. After graduating, they spent several years working amongst Muslim nomads in Mali. It was here that Phil’s enthusiasm began for an appreciation of our Jewish roots and an understanding of the difference it makes to comprehend a Hebraic perspective of the Scriptures. Back in the UK, Phil went into biblical and theological education and has spent the last twenty years teaching at undergraduate and diploma levels. Phil started his working life as a keeper at London Zoo and remains fascinated with the natural world. Therefore, he enjoys being outside – the more remote the better! Phil also loves music with an eclectic taste such as James Blunt and Motorhead.
Dan
Communications and Engagement Manager
With my background in the construction industry I am well aware that if we build badly, the results are disastrous and often immediate. In education structures are built too, these structures are in the minds of the young (and old), these unseen structures are not easily observed and the result of this building work takes some time to be revealed.
‘The Bible Comes to Life Exhibition’ is a powerful weapon to be stationed on the contested territory. In Hebrews ch11, as the writer recounts the tremendous successes of his faithful servants, the phrase ‘By Faith’ is used eighteen times. Eighteen!
What happened ‘By Faith’? Kingdoms were subdued, Righteousness was worked, Promises obtained, Lions mouths were shut, Fire was quenched, The weak were made Valiant and Gods enemies were put to flight.
