Durham Diocese

Ref: JN014824

The Acting Bishop of Durham invites applications for the position of Priest in Charge to serve the parish of St Hilda’s Hartlepool.

Sitting on the striking Hartlepool Headland, St Hilda’s is a wonderful place to live and serve the Lord. The church is built on the site of Hartlepool Abbey, and owes its name to St Hilda, who was Abbess for around 8 years before her move to Whitby.

This is an exciting time to be joining St Hilda’s Hartlepool. Having undergone a large refurbishment and beginning several exciting partnerships, the church is hopeful that this is the beginning of a new chapter in their life together.

St Hilda’s are praying for a priest in charge who can help them be a sustainable hub for social, civic, and spiritual life, that continues the legacy of St Hilda in Hartlepool for generations to come.

For more information or an informal conversation, please contact the Archdeacon of Sunderland: archdeacon.of.sunderland@durham.anglican.org

Please send all applications to human.resources@durham.anglican.org
