Vicar | Egham

Are you being called to serve God in Egham?

St John's is a large, lively, friendly church.  We are looking for a vicar to join in God's transforming work, leading our church to become a growing congregation that continues to share God's love with our wider community, who is:

• filled with the Holy Spirit and grounded in scripture
• able to lead the St John's ministry team and wider church community with a strong local community presence
• gifted to envision, to energise and enable those around them
• demonstrating and proclaiming the love of God to all sections of society, in word and deed
• a loving pastor, encouraging a unity of purpose in leading the next chapter in the life of the church.

The parish is in Runnymede, Surrey and includes both a thriving small town and Royal Holloway University of London.  The vicarage is a large 5-bedroom detached house a few minutes walk away from the church and its large adjoining Easter Centre.

Please see the Parish Profile below for full details.  If you would like to have an informal conversation please contact the Patron's representative Nick Tucker at nick.tucker@churchsociety.org or the Archdeacon of Dorking at martin.breadmore@cofeguildford.org.uk.

And should you wish to submit an application, please contact the Patronage Secretary, Jonathan Porter-Goff at patronage@churchsociety.org who will send out application forms.

We believe that diversity is a strength.  We actively welcome and encourage applications from candidates of all backgrounds and identities, particularly those who identify as female, younger, of a UK Minority Ethnic/Global Majority Heritage, or disabled, as it's essential that we reflect the diversity of the communities we serve.
