Vacancies

Belfast Cathedral – Dean’s Vicar

The Cathedral Church of St Anne, Belfast.

The Dean of Belfast seeks to appoint a colleague in priest’s orders with a minimum of two years full-time stipendiary experience to the vacant position of DEAN’S VICAR at St Anne’s Cathedral, Belfast.

The post may also suit a person seeking a new direction, after some years in ministry.

This exciting position will suit a person who combines a passion for outreach and the ability to relate well to people in pastoral, civic and ecumenical settings, along with organisational ability and a level of choral and liturgical experience.

With a city centre location and a large student population at the Ulster University Belfast Campus, this position offers opportunities to develop the outreach of the Cathedral for city centre ministries. These outreach opportunities will be developed alongside supporting the Dean in the daily life, witness and ministry of the cathedral parish.

Stipend at Diocesan Bishop’s Curate rate (may be subject to enhancement). The Cathedral will provide a suitable ‘Vicarage’ or a Housing Allowance, depending on circumstances.

For an application form please contact: The Dean of Belfast, the Very Rev Stephen Forde – email: dean@belfastcathedral.org; tel: 028 9032 8332 (Cathedral Office)
