Justin Portal Welby (b. 6 January 1956) is the current and sixth Dean of Liverpool in the Church of England, succeeding Rupert Hoare who had retired.

Early life and education

Welby was born to Gavin Bernard Welby and his wife, Jane Gillian Welby (née Portal). His mother remarried, becoming Baroness Williams of Elvel, years after his father's death in 1975. Welby is also related to former Conservative Deputy Prime Minister Rab Butler, later Baron Butler of Saffron Walden. His great-grandfather, Sir Montagu Butler, was Lord Butler of Saffron Walden's father through a second marriage and also the father of Welby's grandmother, Iris Butler, through his first marriage.

He was educated at Eton College before going up to Trinity College, Cambridge to read Law and History. Following graduation he spent 11 years in the oil industry, eventually becoming Group Treasurer of Enterprise Oil PLC ["New Dean for Liverpool Cathedral" (2007), Liverpool Cathedral, Liverpool, viewed 18 April 2008, http://www.liverpoolcathedral.org.uk/content/About/News/article_9_14.aspx] ["News & Press Release" (2007), Coventry Cathedral, Coventry, viewed 18 April 2008, http://www.coventrycathedral.org.uk/Dean_of_Liverpool.htm] .

Ministry

Between 1989 and 1992, he studied theology and trained for the priesthood at Cranmer Hall and St John's College, Durham before becoming a curate at Chilvers Coton with Astley (Nuneaton, UK) between 1992 and 1995. He then became Rector of Southam and Vicar of Ufton from 1995 and 2002. During this time he was known as the Reverend Justin Welby.

In 2002, he was appointed Canon Residentiary at Coventry Cathedral, and was also Co-Director for International Ministry between 2002 and 2005 at the International Centre for Reconciliation. In 2005, he was appointed Sub-Dean and Canon for Reconciliation Ministry. During this time he was known as the Reverend Canon Justin Welby.

He was appointed Dean of Liverpool in December 2007 and was installed in a service at Liverpool Cathedral, UK on Saturday 8 December 2007 at 4 o'clock in the afternoon ["The Queen approves new Dean" (2007), 10 Downing Street, London, http://www.number-10.gov.uk/output/Page11780.asp] .

He has written widely on ethics and on finance, featuring in books such as "Managing the Church?: Order and Organization in a Secular Age" and "Explorations in Financial Ethics". He also wrote a book entitled "Can Companies Sin?: "Whether", "How" and "Who" in Company Accountability" which was published by Grove Books in 1992.
