Working for us as a member of clergy in one of our rural, urban, or inner city parishes will be as varied and interesting as the people of Nottinghamshire you serve. The diocese is based in the heart of the East Midlands, close to the bustling city of Nottingham, and with easy access to London by train with good transport links up, down and across the country. You can be assured of regular pastoral and spiritual support from our Discipleship and Ministry Team, ensuring that your development needs are met in your Ministerial Development Review, with opportunities for peer support and personal growth.

Are you an innovative, mission-minded priest who can build where others have created strong foundations? Would you enjoy working across a suburban community and a distinct village in Nottinghamshire? Could you bring fresh vision and a new season of spiritual and numerical growth? Do you have the imagination to lead others in traditional and contemporary worship styles that enable people to encounter God? Do you have a passion for helping people travel on the journey to faith in Christ from sympathetic observers to integrated disciples? Would you enjoy leading two churches that long to see even more children and young people grow in faith? Do you relish the opportunity of discerning, developing and deploying the gifts of God’s people and providing encouragement and oversight to them?
If so, is God calling you to be our next Rector?
