Kids & Youth Pastor, St Swithun’s Retford

Full-time or Part-time options available / £26,240 pro rata / Fixed term until December 2027, with potential for extension

Are you a fun-loving, energetic leader with a passion for helping children or young people, and families discover and follow Jesus? If so, we’d love to hear from you.

We will appoint either:

• Part-time Kids Pastor & Part-time Youth Pastor
• Combined full-time Kids & Youth Pastor

This is an exciting opportunity to join our creative, fun, spirit-filled team at St Swithun’s Retford (STS), an HTB Resource Church revitalisation now in its fourth year. God has been moving powerfully in our church, local schools, and wider community. We’ve seen significant growth, families joining church for the first time and many people beginning journeys of faith. We believe children and young people are central to building a contemporary, Spirit-filled church that seeks to practise the Way of Jesus.

Retford is a historic market town with a beautiful river and canal, located just minutes from the A1 and close to Sherwood Forest. It has excellent transport links to Nottingham, Sheffield, and Lincoln, and is on a direct rail line to London.

This post has been made possible by generous funding from the National Church of England.
