Job Title: Vocal Music Leader, Tri-borough Music Hub (maternity cover, academic year Sep 2026 to July 2027)
An exciting opportunity to champion progressive vocal music-making across our communities as part of a maternity cover for the academic year September 2026 to July 2027. In this role, you will lead the delivery of high-quality vocal provision across 150 schools, helping to shape and enrich children’s lives through music. We are committed to ensuring that every young voice is heard, valued, and celebrated.
What you’ll be doing:
You will lead and manage a team of tutors to deliver outstanding vocal music provision, both in and beyond school settings. Your work will be varied and rewarding, from overseeing after-school choirs and Saturday Music School sessions to supporting one-to-one vocal learning and leading singing assemblies.
You will provide specialist leadership for strategic vocal development, as well as training and supporting tutors and school-based teachers to build confidence and excellence in vocal delivery.
A key part of the role is acting as the vocal lead for high-profile performance events. This includes our three-day Christmas Festival series and leading the vocal delivery of A Musical Rebellion—a large-scale programme culminating in a performance at the Royal Albert Hall in June 2027.
You will also lead our Youth Voice Council, ensuring that young people’s perspectives directly shape our musical work, while strengthening connections with non-formal settings such as youth clubs.
Interviews: Thurs 25th June 9.00-1.00, and/or Fri 26th June 9.00-1.00
