Overview of the Regional Coordinator role and the team

The Regional Coordinator plays a vital role in advancing the mission of Barnabas Aid by building and nurturing relationships with churches, Christian organisations, and individuals. The role aims to raise awareness, prayer, and financial support for the persecuted church, fostering a network of engaged supporters and expanding the organisation’s outreach.

Do you have a passion for God's mission in London? 

Do you have a heart for those least likely to hear the gospel - and a gift for connecting with them? 

Could you come alongside local churches to engage, envision and equip them to reach more Londoners with the life-changing news of Jesus? 

At London City Mission, we estimate that one in two Londoners, that’s roughly 4.5 million people, are unlikely to hear the gospel in their lifetime. For many of these people, their everyday experience will be one of rejection or helplessness and their cultural and religious background may mean they are least likely to hear the gospel. It’s clear throughout the Bible that God has a heart for people who are marginalised and overlooked. And tragically, it’s often in London’s most deprived communities that people are least likely to hear the invitation to repentance and eternal hope in Jesus. 

At London City Mission, we are partnering with churches who have a growing passion for reaching out to the communities around them, but who need equipping and building up for this crucial work. Our aim over the next five years is to see 150 new missional teams established in churches across London. These missional teams are groups of church members who take responsibility for a ministry to a community who may not otherwise hear about Jesus, are affirmed and publicly supported by the church leadership, pray for each other and for the people they want to invite to follow Christ, using their different gifts regularly to reach people who are part of this community. We pray that, together by 2029, these teams will be part of 25,000 gospel conversations within communities where Jesus Christ isn't known. The Missionary role is, therefore, a Church mobilisation role.

We are seeking candidates for Missionary roles who have a passion for sharing the good news of Jesus with specific groups of Londoners, and who can also come alongside churches to train and inspire Christian believers to reach their local communities with the hope of the gospel.

Successful candidates will minister in – but not restricted to - the following locations:  

• Tower Hamlets team with a specialist focus on Islam & Other Religions* 

• Barking & Dagenham and Havering team with a specialist focus on Children, Youth and Schools 

*Men are under-represented in the Islam and Other Religions (IOR) specialism in LCM, and the IOR audience is more gender-sensitive, so we would particularly welcome applications from men for the Tower Hamlets role. The right candidates for both roles will, of course, be appointed on merit alone.

The successful applicants will have experience of outreach amongst the neediest groups in our society but will also understand the church landscape in London and be able to inspire those in London churches to get involved in outreach. They will work in missional teams to equip church volunteers for outreach where the most need is in their communities, drawing upon their particular experience when required. They will also need to be able to raise ministry personal support, including a target financial support as well as prayer supporters for the work of the Mission through personal and church partnership networks.

We will help train, develop and support you in your role through our professional and established Training team and your line manager and other colleagues. Our heart is to help you be the best that you can be in your role and to help you develop further in your missional and evangelism skills.

This position is a full-time, permanent appointment. Starting salary is £22,045 per annum plus £1,200 per month housing allowance (taxable). Mission housing will be discussed with successful candidates after probation. We also provide a generous employer contribution to a group pension scheme. Targets for personal financial support will be £9,500 for the year 2025. 

There is an occupational requirement that the persons appointed be an evangelical Christian. Occupational Requirement provision of the Equality Act 2010 applies. The appointed candidate will be required to undertake an enhanced DBS check. 

Closing date for applications: Tuesday 27th May 2025 at 12 noon. 

First Stage interviews will be held on Tuesday 17th June 2025. Shortlisted candidates will need to be available on this date from 9am and may be needed for the full day, depending on scheduling.

Second stage interviews will take place in July 2025.  

Candidates who are successful at the first stage will then be invited for a second stage interview – dates will be confirmed in due course.

Do you have a passion for God’s mission in London? 
Do you have a heart for people who are least likely to hear the gospel?   
Do you love helping other Christians to share their faith with greater confidence and to make mission happen in practical ways?

At London City Mission, we want to see Jesus Christ known in every community across London. To do this we develop partnerships with churches, often in communities where people are least likely to hear the gospel. Our teams aim to help churches develop greater confidence and effectiveness in their mission to reach their own local communities. We are now looking for a number of Mission Associates to join us to be involved in this vital work, and to help mission happen through local churches in our diverse city. We will train, develop and support you to help you build on what you already bring, so that you can be the best you can be in your role, and to help you develop further your own missional skills and experience.

This city is home to people whose everyday experience can be one of rejection and helplessness or who come from diverse cultural and religious backgrounds where they have no friend who can share the gospel or take them to church. Our vision is to see both churches and individuals equipped and empowered to reach the communities around them. This means equipping and mobilising churches to be more intentional and effective in their mission.

London City Mission is recruiting to a number of mission outreach roles based in various locations across London. In the Mission Associate role, you will work as part of our teams to:

• Collaborate with and equip churches in evangelism to those who are marginalised or least likely to hear the gospel in their local area
• Contribute to the development of sustainable, structured, innovative missional teams in local churches
• Do mission research and mapping of the mission needs and opportunities in a local area
• Contribute to networking with churches in a local area by, for example, building a list of churches and connecting them with the right LCM colleagues with a view to mission partnership.

The roles we are looking to fill will involve ministering in the following locations:

• Mission Associate, shared between our teams in Hounslow & Ealing and Harrow & North Brent with a focus on reaching South Asian communities through our Islam and Other Religions specialism, with a particular focus on people from Hindu and Sikh backgrounds
• Mission Associate in Islington with a focus on Council Estates and Seniors*
• Mission Associate in South London with a focus on Council Estates and Seniors*
• Mission Associate in Barking & Dagenham and Havering with a focus on Homeless and Marginalised ministries
• Mission Associate in Croydon with a focus on Homeless and Marginalised ministries
• Mission Associate in Lewisham with a focus on Islam and Other Religions specialism.

*Women are under-represented in the Council Estates and Seniors (CES) specialism in LCM, so we would particularly welcome applications from women for the Islington and South London roles. The right candidates for all roles will, of course, be appointed on merit alone.

You would be joining LCM at an exciting time as we take forward our new five-year strategy. Our aim over the next five years is to see 150 new missional teams established in churches across London. These missional teams are groups of church members who “own” outreach to a particular group, are recognised by the leadership, and pray for each other, using their varied gifts regularly to minister to that group. We pray that, together by 2029, these teams will be part of 25,000 gospel conversations within communities where Jesus Christ isn't known.

Our Mission Associates are wholly committed followers of Jesus who bring their passion and skills to contribute to the work of our teams, helping to research the mission needs of an area, supporting networking with churches, helping to train and equip church volunteers in practical evangelism, or helping churches develop their mission work. Successful candidates will be able to prove their ability to contribute to our field teams in these ways. Our professional and established internal training team and your line manager and others, will train, develop and support you in your role so that you develop your own missional skills and evangelism experience.

If this sounds like you, please visit our website and download the Job Description for more information. 

There is an occupational requirement that the people appointed to these roles will be evangelical Christians. The Occupational Requirement provision of the Equality Act 2010 applies. The appointed candidates will be required to undertake a DBS check.

This role is a full-time, fixed-term appointment for two years.

Salary: £28,808 per annum.

Closing date for applications: Tuesday 27th May 2026 at 12 noon.

Interviews will be on either Wednesday 11th June 2025 or Tuesday 17th June 2025. 

Shortlisted candidates will need to be able to be available on any interview date offered from 9am and may be needed for the full day, depending on scheduling.
