We are seeking someone to lead and support the musical life of St Mark’s, enabling the congregation to participate fully in worship through music. This includes playing the organ at Sunday services and on feast days, directing a small choir of all-comers, and fostering congregational singing across a range of musical styles.
One Sunday service plus major festivals, typically 4-6hrs per week.
£7,000 to £8,000 pa dependent on experience.

See you there
Bishop Christopher sent us this message earlier in the week: Please consider joining Richard by fasting in whatever way you can- using the time to pray for food and aid supplies to get into the region and meet the needs of those who are suffering so terribly. Please be sensible in fasting, doing only as much as you can manage and following medical advice, where necessary. If you do join in, you can share what you’re doing on social media by using the hashtag #fastforgaza
Please keep supporting local food banks if you can as many people are struggling to feed their families.
We have a lunch hour service every Wednesday in the small Chapel at 1pm. It lasts about half an hour. It consists of prayer, a short homily followed by communion in a relaxed environment.
St Mark’s Church is seeking singers of any voice-type to support the work of the Choir as Choral Scholars. There are three positions available, created with undergraduate students in mind, each scholarship attracts an honorarium of £1,500 per annum. Choral Scholars will be required to sing on 30 occasions at the 10am Eucharist service on Sunday mornings during term time, and attend the preceding rehearsal at 9:15am.
