£30,274 - £34,224

Closing 31 July 2026
Advertised from 30 June 2026

Role

Could you be part of something different? We have an exciting opportunity for a motivated and  enthusiastic individual to use their gifts, skills and experience to make a difference to the lives of the people of Maryhill and beyond 

Background to the Post 

Together We Make Maryhill (TWMM) is a successful and innovative partnership between Maryhill Ruchill Parish and the Immaculate Conception Parish, now in its fourth year. 

The initiative developed to combat the social isolation and loneliness suffered as a result of Covid, by enabling the two churches to work together to increase their reach and support many more people. It brings people together to strengthen connections in communities and empower people by offering them opportunities to build their confidence and skills. 

Our Community Outreach Worker left the post at the end of 2025 and we are seeking a successor, with a lively Christian faith, to continue this vital role. 

Purpose of the Post

The outreach worker will work as a member of the ministry team to develop the TWMM project further, working primarily with the two congregations and supporting a range of initiatives, to

  • Coordinate activities
  • Support and grow our base of volunteers
  • Work directly with young people, and
  • Develop new activities.

The post holder will be responsible to the Parish Minister, Maryhill Ruchill Parish Church (Line Manager) and the Parish Priest Immaculate Conception Church.
