St Margaret’s is an open and inclusive Anglican church grounded in the broad (liberal-central) tradition and seeking to proclaim the Gospel afresh for each generation. We seek to be:
- Faithful to God as revealed in Jesus Christ
- Open to the call of God and to new ideas and perspectives.
- Inclusive: rejoicing in the variety of all those made in God’s image.
- Welcoming of our whole parish and all our neighbours.
We are seeking a Rector who will:
- Embody our values of inclusivity and openness, offering warmth and welcome.
- Combine thoughtful exploration of the Christian faith with pastoral care skills.
- Enable progress on our missional priorities: connectivity, creation and young people.
- Support with energy and enthusiasm our many growing outreach ministries.
- Sustain our choral and liturgical traditions and bring fresh insights and ideas.
- Line manage staff; lead projects for our buildings; and contribute as a Governor of our excellent parish school (SIAMS, 2020) and Trustee for our small charities.
Our new Rector will find:
- Talented, enthusiastic staff and volunteers.
- A supportive and committed PCC and wider community.
- Rich traditions of liturgy, music and worship.
- A Grade 2* listed church building and modern 4-bedroom rectory.
- A diverse parish with opportunities for growth and development of our ministries.
