“I didn’t want to be a full-time rabbi and Wimbledon wanted someone full-time,” Rabbi Rothschild said.
Rabbi Sheridan, who currently chairs the Assembly of Reform Rabbis UK, will be devoting more time to a charity she has set up to support Jews in Ethiopia.
Rabbi Rothschild said she was sad to come to the end of the job-share.
“It takes a lot of thoughtfulness and communication between the job-sharing partners,” she said. “But it was brilliant working together with another rabbi, especially as one as talented as Sybil.”
