Team Rector, North Lambeth Parish

Introduction

North Lambeth Parish is a vibrant and diverse inner-city community in the heart of London. We are an inclusive and family-orientated liberal Anglican congregation. Our ministry offers a variety of forms of worship, from traditional services to innovative eco-focused ministry. 

We are on the cusp of implementing a multi-million-pound development of St Anselm’s interior. This is a unique opportunity to lead a thriving Parish into an exciting new phase, supported by engaged Church Wardens and PCC.

We are looking for an experienced, ordained minister who

• Can lead the Parish, working with established clergy at St Mary’s Eco Church and St Peter’s Vauxhall, and continue our strong ministry across all platforms.
• Has charisma and the ability to move hearts and minds with their preaching.
• Is an excellent communicator and a good listener.
• Will support and encourage our thriving music and children’s groups.
• Can oversee our development plans, in association with our dedicated team.
• Is able to connect with people from any background, accommodating different perspectives with maturity and grace.
• Will respect our traditions, while bringing something new.

Please find the application pack enclosed.

We have a policy in Southwark Diocese that to be appointed to an incumbent status post, a priest must have served a title post in an Anglican church in the British Isles. We aim to be a diverse and truly representative Diocese, and particularly welcome applications from women and people of UKME heritage.
