We are excited to partner with Latimer Congregational Church, an inspiring and historic church set in the heart of East London. This is a church with a rich past and a bold vision for the future. Their hope is to revitalise their presence in the local community by creating a welcoming Christian retreat and building a thriving, active church family.

The church is already well-positioned for this next chapter, with a building that includes accommodation facilities, a dedicated training area, a basketball court, and plenty of space and resources to grow. As part of the Congregational Federation, Latimer benefits from a bottom-up leadership structure, which means the direction of the church is shaped by its people, empowering the congregation to take ownership and lead with vision and heart.

We are seeking a pioneering and visionary Pioneer Minister to lead this exciting new chapter. This is a unique opportunity to build something from the ground up, to innovate, and to make a real difference in a diverse and dynamic community. We are looking for someone to bring vision, energy, and creativity to a church at the heart of its community. With excellent facilities at your disposal, you’ll be well-placed to develop a ministry that has real impact. You'll also have the chance to build strong local relationships, including exploring interfaith dialogue and creating deeper connections within the community. If you have a passion for reimagining what church and community can look like in today’s world, then we would love to hear from you.

The successful candidate must be able to demonstrate:

• A deep faith in Jesus, a strong sense of vocation, and a passion for evangelism and creative outreach.
• A passion and ability for planning and leading Gospel-centred teaching and outreach that is engaging, enjoyable, and impactful.
• Creativity and innovation in developing fresh, engaging resources to reach and minister to the missing generations.
• Experience in pastoral care within the church, and a natural ability to build trusted relationships with those outside the church community.

While theological qualifications are valued, relevant experience will be considered more heavily.
