37.5 hours per week / £25,000 to £26,500 p.a. (plus 7% employers pension contribution) / 2 years, fixed term until end of 2028, with a conditional option until end of 2030
We’re a growing and lively church in the heart of Daybrook, with a mix of both traditional and modern worship styles. Over the last three years, our children and youth ministry has been an exciting part of that journey, growing to around 30 children and young people regularly taking part in our groups on Sundays and in our mid-week meet ups. We are looking for someone to come and build on the foundations we have established for this ministry and help us to continue to reach out and nurture the young people and families of our parish.
Our parish is on the outskirts of Nottingham and includes a diverse community, with some areas facing real challenges like high unemployment and limited resources. Overall, it ranks in the lower 20% on the Church of England’s Parish Index. Around 25% of our local population is under 18, so there’s a great opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of children and young people here.
We run kids and youth groups during our 4:00pm Sunday services, offering a variety of fun activities and meaningful teaching to help them explore and grow in their own faith. Our service patterns, times, and styles are continuing to grow and evolve, and we want to make sure children and young people know there’s always a place for them.
Beyond Sundays, we are proud to be actively involved in our local parish community through links to our local church school, Burntstump Seely CofE Primary Academy, a range of regular and seasonal activities, including groups for young families and seasonal celebrations that welcome people of all ages. In the summer months, it’s been a joy to take some of our young people away on residential trips – an experience that’s helped them grow in faith, build friendships, and connect with young people from other churches.
This role has been enabled by generous funding from the national church until the end of 2028, with funding expected to continue through until the end of 2030.
THE HEART OF THE ROLE
- Enable young people to meet Jesus
- Equip and grow young disciples within the parish
- Lead and nurture the Kids & Youth team of volunteers
