Working for us as a member of clergy in one of our rural, urban, or inner city parishes will be as varied and interesting as the people of Nottinghamshire you serve. The diocese is based in the heart of the East Midlands, close to the bustling city of Nottingham, and with easy access to London by train with good transport links up, down and across the country. You can be assured of regular pastoral and spiritual support from our Discipleship and Ministry Team, ensuring that your development needs are met in your Ministerial Development Review, with opportunities for peer support and personal growth.

The congregations of St Peter’s and St Mary’s are looking for a new leader who can bring vision and energy to our parish that will enable us to meet our missional priorities. Our parish is a large commuting village north of Nottingham city in the Newstead deanery.

We would love a prayerful person to lead us towards our opportunities for local engagement. We are committed to growing deeper in our own faith as disciples of Christ and to live out the diocesan vision to be living hope for our community, growing disciples with compassion, confidence and courage. We have a dedicated team committed to bridging the generational gap.

Would you like to explore with us the missional opportunities that we have discerned? If so, do be in touch with the Archdeacon of Newark, Tors Ramsey, for an informal conversation (archd-newark@southwell.anglican.org)

Closing date: 30th September

Interview dates: 21st / 22nd October
