Role

Could you be part of something different? We have a rewarding opportunity for a motivated and enthusiastic individual to use their gifts, skills and experience to make a difference to the lives of individuals and communities in the parish of Knightswood Anniesland Trinity.

We are looking for a Parish Assistant or Deacon to support the work of the interim minister to help develop relationships and fellowship in the congregation through assisting the minister in a range of pastoral, congregational and community-related activities.

The hope is the congregation will move into a season of more settled, refreshed and missional ministry in their very large parish, ensuring a flourishing viable congregation moving forward with the postholder providing a greater level of continuity after the period of interim ministry ends.

It is essential you have the right to work in the UK before applying to work with us. You will be asked to provide proof of your eligibility to work and remain in the UK if you are invited to attend for an interview.

This is a full-time role with an agreed flexible/reactive working pattern. However, to accommodate the right candidate, there is the opportunity to apply on a part time basis.
