ROLE OVERVIEW

One Church Brighton is an inclusive and vibrant church community, as well as a collective of transformational projects and two beautiful buildings, all committed to bringing hope and love to Brighton & Hove and beyond.

It’s worth saying at the start that One Church Brighton is quite an unusual church. We are messy, organic and entrepreneurial; we have a variety of projects all trying to tackle social justice issues and we seek to encourage people to get involved with issues that they are passionate about, rather than directing the agenda from ‘the top’. We have a wonderfully eclectic worshipping church community who appreciate the space to be real, air their doubts, ask awkward questions, be utterly vulnerable and where a lack of judgmentalism and an embrace of different views are valued. We have become known for expressing an inclusive theology, as shown so wonderfully in the life and practices of Jesus, that manifests itself in encouraging people to be a part of us who might find less of a welcome in more traditional churches. This is not an incidental point, if you are not open to embracing and welcoming people of different sexuality, different belief, different attitude and behaviour you will find it very hard to work for One Church. If however this is the kind of thinking that thrills you, then you’ll find a wonderfully affirming and beautifully messy church community here in the amazing city of Brighton & Hove. 

All that we are and all that we do, across all of our projects and activities, is shaped by five core values. These are:

• Intimacy with God
• Involvement in the world
• Interdependence with one another
• Inclusion of everyone 
• Integrity in all we do 

One Youth Brighton is a key part of the wider One Church community, providing a range of free services to young people aged 10-18. The Youth Engagement Worker will lead these services, support and grow the volunteer teams that support them, and expand the reach of the projects so that we can meet and support as many young people as possible across Brighton and Hove. 

One Youth Brighton does not exist in a vacuum. There are excellent services and schools that the Youth Engagement Worker will need to work in partnership with across the city. In particular, over the past couple of years, we’ve found great value in working alongside Brighton & Hove Citizens. Through this partnership our young people have been a part of shaping and campaigning for the Mental Heath Service Pledge for Brighton & Hove. 

As well as this strategic and entrepreneurial side to the role, the Youth Engagement Worker will need to be someone who can engage deeply and naturally with young people, volunteers, and staff of diverse backgrounds and beliefs; who is passionate about supporting all young people as they journey towards spiritual, emotional and social maturity.

We’ve been really fortunate to secure funding from the National Lottery Community Fund and this role is paid for by that grant.

• Proactively build good relationships with young people, including mentoring relationships
