1 month ago

London, Greater London, United Kingdom St Barnabas Church Dulwich Full time

Purpose of the Role:


This role supports the Director of Music and organists in ensuring there is both excellent music throughout the year and an outstanding provision for all ages within the Parish of St Barnabas with Christ's Chapel.

Specific areas of responsibility will be tailored to the talents and interests of the successful candidate, however, the post holder will be expected to play a full role in rehearsing, leading and directing the parish's multiple choirs (and, where relevant, playing the organ to a very high standard).

Depending on the skills of the successful candidate, a key area of work will include either:

continuing the development of a Youth Choir; developing the role of the organ through recitals, teaching and outstanding playing; or ensuring recruitment for each choir remains active, forward-thinking and engaging.


Summary of the Role:


The primary role of the Assistant Director of Music is to support, encourage and inspire the work of the existing choirs and musicians.

The Assistant Director of Music will be expected to play a role in Sunday morning worship during term time and choral evensongs; outside of term time, duties are lighter and will be discussed with the successful candidate.

The Parish Choir of St Barnabas and Dulwich Children's Choir (DCC) currently rehearse on Friday evenings; there is potential to re-think the evening on which the Youth Choir rehearse.

The ADoM should be available for all choir rehearsals during term-time, although, of course, there is the possibility for flexibility to accommodate other ad-hoc work.


The ADoM will be involved in the planning and preparation of music for services, concerts and tours, and will be involved in crafting liturgy for weekly services.

The ADoM will have specific responsibility for the planning of sung Music at services outside of term-time.

In addition to the regular work of the parish choirs, there are regular weddings and funerals throughout the year (c.30).
