The Bishop of Newcastle wishes to appoint an incumbent to ‘The Cheviot Benefice’ (Doddington, Ilderton, Kirknewton and Wooler) in the Deanery of Bamburgh and Glendale.
To be a lively and engaged presence in the worshipping communities and beyond, helping the parishes to thrive and to effectively collaborate with one another.
To further encourage and enable lay leadership and collaborative working patterns.
To develop local action plans which align with the deanery and diocesan vision of ‘Seeking, Sharing, Sending’, making best use of buildings and of financial and human resource.
We seek a collaborative, enabling leader, possessing the wisdom, creativity and vision, to help us to develop our people and our buildings to be truly Good News for the people of the Cheviot hills.
