Worship Pastor

*Please note: the Diocese of York is not the employer*

St Barnabas Church, Middlesbrough is a lively evangelical Anglican church, attended by 250 to 300 people in person each week. We are keen to recruit an enthusiastic and faith-filled person(s) to join our growing staff team as Worship Pastor. Set in a town which includes a university, many different nationalities and some of the poorest parts of the UK, we are passionate about Jesus and his good news and sharing God’s love with all.
The ability to lead a wide range of worship styles would be a significant asset for this post. This post is for 25 hours a week and could be a job-share, dependent on the skill-set and experience of the applicants. The salary is £17,485 (the real living wage) per annum.

The successful candidate will combine:

• A passion for Jesus and his church and a readiness to give a spiritual lead as part of the wider staff team.
• Strong gifts in worship leading and musicianship.
• The ability to discern, nurture and release the gifts of a wide range of musicians of varying ages, backgrounds and worship traditions.
