Vicar of All Saints, Tooting

Introduction

The Bishop of Southwark wishes to appoint a vicar to All Saints, Tooting in the borough of Wandsworth, London.

We are looking for a welcoming, spiritual and energetic priest, who will enjoy living in Tooting, and bring leadership, encouragement and enthusiasm to our parish. 

In addition to general spiritual and pastoral qualities, they will

• Inspire, guide and enable the congregation
• centre us in our faith through discipleship, prayer and worship
• help us develop our strategic vision for the parish 
• be collaborative, connecting with existing stakeholders and forging new partnerships in Tooting
• help develop creative and imaginative ways to engage with underserved groups, eg young people and children.

We offer a congregation of deeply committed and enthusiastic members who wish to continue our spiritual journey and develop our work with our local community.

For an informal conversation about this post with the Archdeacon of Wandsworth, please contact her PA, Charlie Watkins: charlie.watkins@southwark.anglican.org 

Closing date: Sunday 22 June

Parish visit for shortlisted candidates: Saturday 12 July

Interviews: Monday 14 July

We have a policy in Southwark Diocese that to be appointed to an incumbent status post, a priest must have served a title post in an Anglican church in the British Isles. We aim to be a diverse and truly representative Diocese, and particularly welcome applications from people of UKME heritage.
