The Diocese of Manchester is seeking to appoint a Chaplain to provide a source of pastoral care and a visible Anglican presence in the heart of the City of Manchester’s university community.
The Anglican Chaplain will:
- facilitate Christian worship and find opportunities to bring the Gospel of Jesus to students in Manchester.
- Work closely with student bodies and the wider multifaith chaplaincy already in place to provide appropriate pastoral care for students and university staff.
- Build a team of volunteers to provide support with the aim of ensuring the wellbeing of the university community across the campuses.
- Develop links with local churches that can offer ongoing spiritual support for students.
This is an exciting opportunity to represent the Diocese within the vibrant and exciting university community.

We are also looking for someone who is generous in working with a breadth of traditions and spirituality in the Church of England, all expressions of Christian faith and other faiths.
