Parish Vacancies

A rare opportunity has arisen to appoint a part time (3 days p/w plus Sundays) Priest in Charge for the Chatsworth villages in the glorious Peak District National Park.

 

We are looking for an outstanding and innovative leader to come and work with us to further the mission in our individual local contexts and to explore ways of engaging further with the visitors to Chatsworth House and wider home estate.

You will find an eclectic and friendly mix of people and supportive PCCs who are looking for someone to share our passion for the delights of the Book of Common Prayer - yet we are also open to other types of worship.

You will need to be pastorally gifted, inclusive and a discreet listener.

We will offer you a desirable 4 bedroomed house within Edensor Village, access to a wide range of benefits associated with the Chatsworth Estate along with outstanding schools, and of course the beauty of the National Park.
