We are at an exciting time in the life of St Mary’s. In 2023 we launched our new mission strategy to enable our vision of Calling Islington Home as a committed, connected and caring community.

The Diocese of London is committed to creating and sustaining a diverse and inclusive workforce which represents our context and wider community. We are aware that those of Global Majority Heritage/United Kingdom Minority Ethnic (GMH/UKME), women, and disabled people are currently under-represented among our clergy and workforce, and we particularly encourage applications from those with the relevant skills and experience that will increase this representation.
