We seek to appoint a house for duty associate priest to work with the Vicar and ministry teams in providing ministry in the benefice of West Byfleet and New Haw.

We are looking for a priest who:

• Will be a good colleague.

We offer:

• Creative and supportive teams to work with in both churches
• A hopeful and stimulating vision
• A well-maintained 5 bedroom house

Please see the Profile below, and if you would like to have an informal conversation, please contact the Vicar, Keith Elford at vicarwestbyfleetandnewhaw@gmail.com

As a Diocese, we believe that diversity is a strength.  We actively welcome and encourage applications from candidates of all backgrounds, particularly those who are female, younger, identify themselves as a UK Minority Ethnic/Global Majority Heritage, or disabled, as it's essential that we reflect the diversity of the communities we serve.
