Are you passionate about seeing children come to know Jesus for themselves and grow in all he has for them? We’re looking for a Kids Pastor to join our team. This is a one-year, fixed-term contract based in the centre of Cambridge.

HT is a vibrant, evangelical, charismatic, Anglican church with a large and growing church family of all ages and stages. We are situated right at the centre of the city and perfectly placed to reach students and adults alike. Our vision is to see Cambridge reached and the world impacted with the good news and transforming power of the risen Lord Jesus.

Alongside the Senior Children’s Pastor and Children’s Pastor (Infants and Babies), you will be responsible for pastoring the children of HT in Years 3–6 and their families, bringing hands-on leadership to the wider team involved in HT Kids, and reaching out to children and families in Cambridge who don’t yet know Jesus. A major part of this role will be managing staff and volunteers to increase their confidence and fruitfulness as they work with children. You will be a leader of leaders, with a heart to invest in and facilitate the ministry of others.
