Job advert

It’s not often that a church gives a minister a genuinely clean slate. But in a place where the local football team eats vegan food, where Whitefield preached and five valleys meet, the URC is offering just that – an opening for a forward-looking full-time pioneer to discern where God is at work and help foster new expressions of church.

Would you like to seize this new opportunity in the independent-thinking, creative town of Stroud?  You would be supported by the existing minister and congregation and expected to lead worship there as well as develop a new community.

Since the work will involve travel, a full driving licence and access to a car are necessary requirements.

This appointment is subject to a satisfactory enhanced clearance by the Disclosure and Barring Service.

All applicants must have the right to live and work in the UK and must hold a current NI number, UK bank account and valid proof of ID (passport or British birth certificate, please go to www.gov.uk/check-an-employees-right-to-work-documents for more information).

Shortlisting:  Wednesday 16 November after which those selected for interview will be contacted by email.

Candidates selected will be required to attend in person to give a presentation, face to face interviews and to meet local church representatives for the post on Wednesday 30 November at Rodborough Tabernacle URC.
