Employment

We’re delighted that you’re considering becoming part of the Diocese of Portland. Whether you already call Maine home or are exploring the possibility of relocating, we hope you’ll discover opportunities here that spark your passion, deepen your sense of purpose, and invite you into meaningful service.

Living and working in Maine is a truly unique experience. Here, the natural beauty of the coast, mountains, and tight-knit towns comes together with a way of life that values community, balance, and authenticity. Maine offers four vibrant seasons, abundant outdoor recreation, a thriving arts scene, and a culture rooted in kindness and resilience. It’s a place where people look out for one another — and where your work can make a real difference.

Serving the Church in Maine is more than a job; it is a vocation. Across the Diocese in the Chancery, our parishes, Catholic schools, cemeteries, and partner ministries, you’ll find people united in one mission: to proclaim Jesus Christ, welcome people into communion with Him, and help build the Kingdom of God. Every role, regardless of title, contributes to this mission and supports the spiritual and communal life of Catholics throughout the state.

Our Office of Human Resources is committed to supporting those who serve. The diocese offers a range of benefits designed to promote physical well-being, professional and personal growth, and spiritual nourishment. We strive to create a workplace grounded in our shared values — where you can flourish in your calling and feel genuinely supported in your daily life.

We invite you to explore opportunities with us and discover how your gifts can help shape the future of the Church in Maine.
