Jobst Edmund completed studies at the universities of Heidelberg and Reims and was sworn to the knighthood of Münster on February 5, 1747 . The following year he received by his uncle Johann Wilhelm as Turnar the Dompräbende in Munster . In 1750 he was appointed to resign from office in Poppenburg. After his father's resignation , Jobst Edmund received the cathedral priest in Hildesheim in 1751 and worked here as archdeacon in 1757 . He was awarded the Dompräbende for the Speyer Cathedral in 1769. Ten years later he was a cathedral waiter in Münster. Jobst Edmund was a subdeacon and was considered an opponent of Minister Franz von Fürstenberg . Shortly before his death, he gave up prebende in Münster in favor of his brother Clemens August. The turnar refused to approve. The Reichshofrat confirmed this decision. Therefore, after his death, the prebend went to Ferdinand August Freiherr von Spiegel. Jobst Edmund was buried in Münster Cathedral.
