Irvine was a barrister in London before his ordination to the priesthood. He served a curacy at Holy Trinity Brompton and was one of the founders of the Alpha course.[1] Having taken charge of the Alpha course, he played a major part in transforming it from its original four-week form to its current 10-week form.
Irvine was appointed Dean of Coventry in March 2001.[1]
