Role

Could you be part of something different? We have an exciting opportunity for a motivated and enthusiastic individual to use their gifts, skills, and experience to make a difference in the lives of people in our parishes and communities.

Bennachie Parish Church was created in 2023 following the union of Blairdaff & Chapel of Garioch, Cluny & Monymusk, Echt & Midmar, Kemnay, and Kintore Churches. We are looking for an Outreach Parish Assistant who will play a key role within the Parish. The role will help develop creative, sustainable, and meaningful outreach and connection within the wider parish and local communities, strengthen our links with our own membership, and explore fresh expressions of all-age worship.

The successful candidate will have experience of outreach to families and/or adults aged 18-40, as well as experience in developing, running, and evaluating events. You should be comfortable in various congregational settings, including informal, formal, and interactive, with excellent communication skills and team working.

The successful candidate will be a committed Christian with an active Church connection (Genuine Occupational Requirement in terms of the Equality Act 2010).

It is essential you have the right to work in the UK before applying. You will need to provide proof of your eligibility to work and remain in the UK if invited for an interview.

Closing date: Friday, 29 August 2025 at 12 noon.
