We are seeking an inspirational musician to lead choral music and singing at Bedford School. This is a hugely exciting new full-time role suited to an experienced choral director. The successful candidate will work across the whole age range of the school (Y3-13), and will take responsibility for all choral groups, including the Chapel Choir. Our Chapel Choir has a rich and impressive history, and to this day proudly continues its centuries’ old tradition of a boys-only choir singing choral music within a liturgical context. One-to-one teaching will also be required; those with a specialism in either singing or keyboard are equally welcome to apply.
We welcome applications from those available to take up the position in either September 2021 or earlier if possible.
The school has its own salary scale which is well above the national scale.
Closing date | Monday 15 March 2021 |
Interview date | Week/beginning 22 March 2021 |
Suitable candidates may be interviewed before the closing date and Bedford School reserves the right to withdraw the position if an early appointment is made. Applicants are therefore encouraged to apply early. We welcome applications from all Music specialists and particularly from those with black, Asian and minority ethnic backgrounds who can provide good role models for our global students.
