Director of Music

About the job

We have a rare and exciting opportunity for a suitably dynamic and inspiring musician and teacher to lead our Music Department. The department teaches students from Year 7 through to A-Level/Oxbridge, as well as contributing to music teaching in our Junior School. You will also be expected to lead our wide and fully encompassing co-curricular music programme and work closely with the Head of Drama in creating an exciting and fully inclusive Performing Arts calendar of activities. If you think you possess the flair and inspiration to take the department to new heights, then we want to hear from you. 

Being ‘willing to go the extra mile’ is a major part of the role for all teachers at the RGS, not merely in specialist activities but in a huge range of co-curricular sporting, artistic and cultural work. We are keen to invite applications from those who would like to make their own distinctive contribution to this ethos. 

The RGS has its own salary scale (which is above national pay scales for teachers). 

This vacancy arises from the promotion of the current Director of Music and Head of Performing Arts, Zlatan Fazlić, to the Director of Qatar Music Academy in Doha.
