Job Description:
The Bishop of Newcastle wishes to appoint a full-time priest to be Vicar to the Benefice of Bedlington, Cambois and Sleekburn, who will work alongside the people there to:
* Worship God
* Serve people by speaking and living the good news of the Gospel
* Enable others to do the same
The benefice includes Bedlington, the fourth biggest town in Northumberland, along with settlements at Bedlington Station, East Sleekburn, and the coastal settlements of Cambois. Located near Northumberland National Park and the coastline, the area has a rich mining and football heritage, with good transport links attracting residents working in Newcastle and North Tyneside.
The congregations aim to deepen their faith, engage with their communities, and grow in mission and ministry. The role emphasizes maintaining close links with the Church of England primary school and other local schools, as well as strengthening community partnerships. The position also involves engaging with new housing developments and industries like Northumberland Energy Park and a new Data Centre near Cambois.
