The Vacancy

From Eurovision to literary festivals, from sports events to music festivals – we’re taking the Methodist Church on the road.

Do you enjoy creating and hosting relaxed spaces where people connect with one another and with God? Are you a people -person looking for creative approaches to mission? Are you flexible enough to be on the ground throughout an event motivating a team of volunteers, getting details right, and troubleshooting problems?

We’re looking for someone with events experience, organisational skills, and an inclusive approach to faith to take on a new post of Festival Events Coordinator.

It is considered an Occupational Requirement for this role that the postholder should be a practising Christian.
