About the Role

Director of Ministry Leadership School

Full-time

St Jude’s is seeking a suitably qualified and experienced person to be the initial Director of our new Ministry Leadership School (MLS).

St Jude’s is aiming to significantly expand our training program by launching a Ministry Leadership School (MLS). Our vision is that the MLS will equip lay people for leadership in the life of the church and their vocational lives, as well as offering a pathway for people to step into ordained and other vocational ministries.

The director of the MLS will be responsible for advancing our existing ministry training programs, particularly our ministry traineeships, and developing a new MLS structure which integrates and initiates various training programs. The MLS will support St Jude’s members to consider and pursue vocational gospel ministry in Melbourne and the world. The MLS will also train church members for effective leadership in the life of the church and beyond.

About St Jude’s Anglican Church

St Jude’s is an evangelical Anglican church in inner Melbourne, welcoming all kinds of people: young and old, families and singles, students and workers who come from Victoria, interstate and overseas. We are a contemporary church that seeks to engage with the world, sees the Bible as God’s word and authority in all matters of life and faith, and has an emphasis on reformed evangelical theology.

We worship in 6 congregations, across two main campuses (in Carlton and Parkville) and at the Carlton Housing Estate. We’re prayerfully expectant that continued growth will mean new congregations and
church plants in the coming years. The pastoral leadership team and ministry operations team serve together under the leadership of the Vicar and Parish Council. Our vision is to be a church for the whole person, the whole community, the whole city and the whole world as we proclaim the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.
