Are you passionate about helping young people discover God’s love? Do you feel called to inspire and nurture faith in the next generation?

As our current Youth Worker has moved abroad to continue theological studies, Barclay Viewforth Church is seeking a committed, creative, and compassionate Youth Worker to join our team and lead our vibrant youth ministry.

About Us

Barclay Viewforth is a multi-generational congregation engaged with the Growing Young initiative, seeking to make young people an integral part of our church life. We’re committed to creating a church community where all generations grow together in faith, discipleship, and service.

The Role

This part-time position (16 hours/week, salary £31,168 pro rata) is an exciting opportunity to:

• Lead Sunday youth ministry, working alongside volunteers to create engaging and age-appropriate groups for school-aged children.
• Develop a termly programme of discipleship and social events that welcomes youth within and beyond the church.
• Collaborate in whole church services, celebrations, and seasonal events.
• Build relationships with local schools and other churches to grow our youth outreach.
• Provide pastoral support and a safe, nurturing space for young people.
• Support and grow a volunteer team, offering training, encouragement, and leadership.

You’ll work closely with the minister and church staff, with opportunities for ongoing training and personal development in a supportive environment.

What We’re Looking For

You will have:

• A deep Christian faith and a heart for working with young people.
• Experience in leading youth or community work (paid or voluntary).
• Strong communication and organisational skills.
• A passion for discipleship, outreach, and inclusion.
• Familiarity with current youth culture, and a desire to make church engaging and relevant.

Desirable but not essential:

• A recognised qualification in theology, youth work, or mission.
• A valid driver’s licence or minibus certification.

Our Ideal Candidate

You’re someone who is self-motivated, adaptable, and a natural encourager. You’re just as comfortable leading a small group Bible study as you are organising a youth event or speaking in front of the congregation. You value collaboration, can manage a budget, and are willing to learn and grow in your role.

This post does not meet current UK government pay scale criteria for non-UK applicants, therefore, we can only accept applications from those who already have the right to work in the UK.

Treasurer - Cruse Scotland Bereavement Support

A unique opportunity to contribute your financial expertise to an organisation making a profound difference to bereaved people across Scotland

About the Role:Cruse Scotland is currently seeking a new Trustee to take on the key role of Treasurer who as well as fulfilling the duties of a general Trustee, would undertake the added responsibility of providing strategic oversight of Cruse Scotland’s financial affairs.

The Board meet quarterly as does the Finance and Audit Committee.

About Cruse Scotland:We are Scotland’s leading bereavement charity, providing bereavement support to anyone in Scotland who needs us.

The range of support we offer includes our Free Bereavement Helpline, GriefChat (instant web-based support), individual and group counselling support, children and young people’s services, training to workplace support and more. See our Get Support section for more information

The most remarkable thing about Cruse Scotland is the fact that our client services are delivered purely by a volunteer workforce - all of whom - are trained to professional standards. It’s fair to say that their motivation and commitment is contagious, and as such, we value their contributions highly.

Our volunteer workforce of 250 people are located in communities across Scotland, and are supported by a staff team of 23, the majority of whom are employed part time. Without our volunteers our organisation simply would not exist. This of course includes the contributions of those who oversee the governance of our charity - our trustees - all of whom are volunteers too. Our trustees comprise a broad range of professions and expertise and are an engaged, committed and friendly bunch. Meet them here: Our People : Cruse Scotland
