He was educated at Lancaster University, graduating in 1984 with a Bachelor of Arts honours degree (BA Hons) in English. In 1985, he started training for the ministry at Westcott House, Cambridge, gaining his theological degree (a BA from Queens' College, Cambridge) in 1987. Per Oxbridge tradition, this BA was upgraded to a Cambridge Master of Arts (MA Cantab) in 1989.

Made a deacon at Petertide (26 June) 1988 and ordained a priest the Petertide following (2 July 1989) — both times by Robert Runcie, Archbishop of Canterbury, at Canterbury Cathedral, he began his career with a curacy at St John the Baptist, Margate; was then senior Chaplain at the University of Warwick (1992–1998) and finally (before his appointment to the episcopate) Team Rector of the Coventry East team of churches.

Gregory was appointed as Bishop of Wolverhampton, a suffragan and area bishop in the Diocese of Lichfield, in 2007. He was ordained and consecrated a bishop on 19 April 2007, by Rowan Williams, Archbishop of Canterbury, at Southwark Cathedral and installed as Lichfield Cathedral on 5 May 2007. A keen cricketer, Gregory married in 1997 and they have two children. In the vacancy between the retirement of Jonathan Gledhill on 30 September 2015 and the arrival of Michael Ipgrave on 10 June 2016, Gregory was also the acting Bishop of Lichfield.
