The key responsibility is to provide operational support to the Ministry Team to facilitate all practical aspects of services of worship in a respectful and dignified way.

You will be required to manage the Kirk’s core Sunday Services – 9:30am to 10:30am and a Gaelic Service from 11:30am to 12:30pm. You will also be required if available to assist with funerals, weddings and other services (including rehearsals) in the kirk and will be paid in addition to the Beadle salary.
