Could you be our next Team Rector?

Team Rector of St Luke in the City and Priest in Charge of Toxteth St Margaret

Serving a vibrant, growing and rapidly changing part of Liverpool city centre, this is a fabulous place to live and work. From Liverpool’s heritage waterfront, the St Luke in the City parish takes in much of Liverpool’s shopping, student and technology quarters, stretching across to the more deprived Edge Hill area. The small parish of St Margaret of Antioch is immediately adjacent, and covers historic Toxteth, now rapidly gentrifying in places with all the community upheaval, creativity and opportunities that implies.
