The Parish of Holcombe and Hawkshaw, on the edge of the beautiful West Pennine Moors in Greater Manchester, is seeking a new Rector and Mission Community Leader to join us on the next stage of our journey.
Are you a prayerful, Spirit-led priest with a heart for people, a love of Scripture, and a passion for mission? The Parish of Holcombe and Hawkshaw, on the edge of the beautiful West Pennine Moors in Greater Manchester, is seeking a new Rector and Mission Community Leader to join us on the next stage of our journey.
We are a welcoming, warm and outward-looking parish with three distinct yet mutually supportive worshipping centres, offering a rich variety of worship styles – from traditional Anglican liturgy and choral worship to informal, all-age and contemporary services. At the heart of our life is a shared vision: loving God, loving our neighbours, and sharing Jesus with all.
We are looking for a vicar who is rooted in prayer and confident in Bible-based preaching and teaching; someone able to engage people of all ages, encourage diverse expressions of worship, and empower both ordained and lay leaders to flourish in their gifts. You will value pastoral care, be committed to safeguarding, and have the vision and resilience to lead growth in faith, discipleship and community engagement.
The parish is well supported by an enthusiastic ministry team, strong links with local schools, a part-time Children and Families Lead, and a wide range of missional and community activities. A substantial vicarage is provided next to St Mary’s, Hawkshaw.
If you are excited by the opportunity to lead a diverse parish with strong foundations and real potential for growth, we would love to hear from you.

Job Description Head of Early Years (HEYFS) Required: January / Easter 2026 Reporting to: Head of Junior School Hours: Full Time Closing date: Tuesday 4th November, 12:00 noon Interview date: Wednesday 12th November The Role This is an exciting opportunity for an inspiring and experienced Early Years leader to shape the very first stage of our pupils’ educational journey. As Head of Early Years (HEYFS), you will lead a dynamic, creative and nurturing team at Little King’s, ensuring that every child experiences a joyful, ambitious and carefully tailored start to school life. With the autonomy to innovate across the Early Years curriculum and a close connection to the wider school community, this role offers the chance to make a profound and lasting impact on children’s learning, development and love of discovery. The Head of Early Years at King's is a key leadership role within the Junior School Leadership Team (JSLT), responsible for the strategic, academic, and pastoral oversight of Little King's, and plays a critical role in pupil recruitment. This role reflects the latest UK EYFS Framework, emphasising inclusive, high-quality early education and smooth transitions into Reception and Year 1. The School The King’s School is one of the dozen oldest schools in the country and has a proud heritage dating back to at least 1087, with a re-foundation in 1541. King’s is the Cathedral School in the city of Gloucester, whilst the surrounding county is home to many excellent grammar and state schools, as well as other independent schools. King’s is held in high regard amidst this competitive area; our academic, co-curricular and pastoral attainment is second to none. As a result, the last three ISI reports for King’s have all been classified as ‘excellent’ in every area. Local media brand SoGlos has awarded King’s the title of ‘Independent School of the Year’ or ‘Highly Commended’ in every one of the last six years – a feat unmatched by any other local independent school – most recently winning the title in May 2025. Despite the multiple national-scale challenges of recent years, King’s has seen its pupil roll growing steadily and parental satisfaction scoring very highly indeed. With careful investment in the campus and facilities, as well as a continuous focus on improving teaching and learning and developing our outstanding pastoral care, King’s is now seen as a dynamic, forward-thinking and impressive place to study and to work. The Department Little King’s is a vibrant, warm, and purposeful Early Years setting nestled within The King’s School, Gloucester. From ages three to five, the department is driven by a philosophy that learning should be joyful, stimulating and rooted in strong, supportive relationships. Staff at Little King’s offer an individualised curriculum, responsive to children’s needs and interests, where early learning goals are enriched by outdoor opportunities – Forest School, trips to places like Crickley Hill and the Forest of Dean, and use of the School’s own secret garden and pond. Parents are partners in the journey: through excellent home-school links, access to online learning journals, and regular, honest communication, the child’s development is shared and celebrated together. The environment itself feels part of something bigger – Little King’s is physically within the Junior School, fostering a strong sense of belonging to the wider King’s community and aiding smooth transitions as children grow. In Little King’s you’ll find a team of experienced, caring professionals who value resilience, confidence, independence and academic, emotional, and social growth equally. The culture is one of high expectations, mutual support, and creative freedom. If you’re seeking a department you can lead with vision, collaborate with passionate colleagues, and help lay foundations for lifelong learning, Little King’s offers just that. Main Duties Teaching, Learning and Curriculum: • Lead the planning, delivery, and continuous development of the EYFS curriculum in alignment with the latest UK EYFS Framework; Perform classroom teacher duties for the Reception year group; • Champion Early Literacy and Numeracy development through targeted interventions and enrichment activities; • • Oversee the delivery of Early Birds and Aftercare for Little King’s pupils; • Lead a two-week summer school programme focused on Early Literacy and Numeracy for children preparing for Reception or Year 1; • Ensure continuity and progression between EYFS and KS1 through regular liaison and curriculum alignment; • Create and manage the timetable for Little King's, ensuring balanced coverage of all EYFS areas of learning; • Coordinate internal moderation and contribute to whole-school strategic planning and curriculum development.
