Director of Music - Oxford, United Kingdom - University of Oxford
Description
St Edmund Hall proposes to appoint a new Director of Music to commence as soon as possible.
Music is an important aspect of life at St Edmund Hall and our previous Directors of Music have achieved a great deal in developing the choir. This vacancy represents an exciting opportunity, with increased hours, to build on strong foundations.
This is a particularly exciting time to join the College. Our 10-year strategy launched in October 2019 and identifies music as an important theme within the culture of the College. The new Director of Music will have the opportunity to contribute to the development of practical steps in the implementation of the second phase of the strategy after its 5-year-review this year. The appointee will be involved in continuing to develop a vision for creating an inclusive, vibrant music scene and influencing the future of music across the College.
Duties will involve encouraging and supporting students in a wide range of musical activities, including arranging recitals and concerts and identifying and developing opportunities for music within college, for example lunch-time concerts, music at formal dinners and informal events. The appointee will also be required to support the provision of music for weekly chapel services and special occasions, e.g., St Edmund Feast, Charter Dinner, Gaudies and parents evenings. The majority of these duties will fall during full terms. There are, however, some official occasions that fall outside of the term time and it is therefore essential that the appointee is able to work flexibly which includes evenings and weekends to allow for the variation in the level of duties across a full academic year.
The Director of Music will have dining rights in the Senior Common Room up to three days per week during full term and on other appropriate occasions when performing their duties. The salary will be offered on the University of Oxford Grade 7 scale on a pro rata basis, corresponding to an average of 2.5 days per week, with the overall days to be allocated variably according to requirements, which will be mainly in the 24 weeks of the full University terms, although it should be understood that Choir tours and certain other duties occur during vacations and the post-holder will be expected to manage their workload accordingly. Use of a small office will be provided. The post-holder will be eligible to join the Universities Superannuation Scheme (USS).
Application Process
Interested applicants should forward the following documents:
Documents should be sent by email (in PDF format) to by GMT 12:00 on Monday, 3 June 2024. Postal Applications (to arrive by the same deadline) should be sent to the HR Manager, St Edmund Hall, Queen's Lane, Oxford, OX1 4AR.
Interviews (which will also include an audition with the College choir) are expected to be held on Friday, 14 June 2024.
Informal enquiries about the post should be directed to
£36,024 to £44,263 per annum, pro rata (£18,012 to £22,131.50 per annum).
