Team Rector for the Papworth Team of Churches
The Papworth Team of Churches are a well-established and well-run group of parishes to the west of Cambridge, looking for someone who enjoys the breadth of rural church life. We pray for a new Team Rector who is:
-
A godly person who will inspire and guide a faithful response to the Gospel through good preaching and teaching and a flexible approach to worship and mission.
-
An able team leader who understands rural churches and is keen to promote lay ministry and work with children, young people and families.
We can offer a good vicarage, paid administration, a committed ministry team and lay volunteers. The new Rector will be invited to appoint a stipendiary Team Vicar colleague.

Safer Recruitment in the Diocese of Ely
The Ely Diocesan Board of Finance (EDBF) is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults, and expects all employees to undertake safeguarding checks and training relevant to their role and to adhere to the Church of England’s safeguarding policies and procedures (click here for more).
A Diverse and Inclusive Workforce 
The Diocese of Ely is committed to creating and sustaining a diverse and inclusive workforce which represents our context and wider community. We are aware that those of Global Majority Heritage/United Kingdom Minority Ethnic (GMH/UKME), women, and disabled people are currently under-represented among our clergy and workforce, and we particularly encourage applications from those with the relevant skills and experience that will increase this representation.
