York, York City, United Kingdom NORTH YORKSHIRE COUNCIL Full time £30,000 - £50,000 per year

Salary: £37,842 per annum

Contract: Permanent

Hours: Full time (would consider 4 days per week)

Location: York, North Yorkshire

Do you believe in the power of music to transform young lives? Can you keep a dozen plates spinning and still whistle a tune? We're on the lookout for a brilliant Schools Programme Manager to orchestrate the smooth running of our school music activities across Yorkshire and the North East.

This is no ordinary desk job - you'll be part conductor, part problem-solver, part people-whisperer. If you thrive on variety, love building partnerships, and want to see young people light up through music, then step into the spotlight

What you'll be doing (your set list):

  • Leading the delivery of our Schools Music Programme and events across multiple schools and regions.

  • Managing our delivery partners with the poise of a true collaborator.

  • Striking up brilliant relationships with schools and stakeholders.

  • Keeping the programme in tune - monitoring performance, reporting outcomes, and ensuring safeguarding is top priority.

  • Overseeing contracts and compliance like a seasoned stage manager.

Who you are (your greatest hits):

  • Experienced in running educational or arts programmes, including staff and contract management.

  • A natural organiser and communicator who can lead with confidence.

  • Comfortable juggling budgets, schedules, and a to-do list longer than a symphony.

  • Passionate about music education and the difference it makes for young people.

Encore (why join us?):

  • Be part of a team that genuinely changes lives through music.

  • Work in a role where no two days are the same.

  • Bring your leadership skills to a programme that's growing, ambitious, and full of heart.

If this sounds like music to your ears, we'd love to hear from you.

and help us keep the beat going for young people.
