Residential Team members are offered a remuneration package consisting of a salary, pension contributions and self-contained unfurnished living accommodation. Although council tax and utility bills are paid by the Centre, the postholder is personally responsible for payment of any tax liability arising from remuneration classed by HMRC as a taxable benefit in kind. In addition, team receive 31 days annual leave inclusive of Bank Holidays.

Time off is usually one full weekend each fortnight, and Monday and Tuesday off after a working weekend.
Although living in separate accommodation, the residential community worship together, eat in community with guests (unless off duty), plan and pray together. The residential community also prepare breakfast for guests, wash up after meals, lay tables, take turns being on-call for guests and generally do all that is necessary to keep the Centre running, especially if other staff are sick or on holiday. Depending on an individual’s skills set and experience, residential Ministry Team can also be involved with other key tasks at the Centre, such as administration, meal preparation, or gardening and maintenance tasks.

Another focus of the residential Ministry Team role is supporting our guests and providing prayer ministry. Previous experience in prayer ministry for new members of the team is an advantage, but training will be provided. Depending on areas of gifting, Ministry Team also take an active role in teaching and leading worship activities and are given opportunities to develop in these areas.
