Brighton, Brighton and Hove, United Kingdom Zylo Performance Full time

About Us:

Zylo is a dynamic and innovative company dedicated to enriching the lives of children through the performing arts. We specialize in providing engaging and educational after-school drama clubs for primary school students. Our mission is to inspire creativity, build confidence, and foster a love for drama in young minds. We are committed to creating a supportive and inclusive environment where children can explore their talents and express themselves freely.

Job Description:

We are seeking a confident and capable individual with a passion for drama and a great rapport with children to join the Zylo team from January. The role involves leading after-school drama clubs at primary schools in and around the Brighton area.

Responsibilities:

  • Lead and supervise after-school drama club activities for children.
  • Utilise teaching and communication skills to engage and inspire young participants.
  • Manage children's behaviour in a positive and constructive manner.
  • Provide a safe and inclusive environment for children to explore drama.

Requirements:

  • Must have experience or qualifications in drama, the performing arts, or a related discipline.
  • Must have an engaging and charismatic personality.
  • Experience working with children is preferred but not essential.

Details:

  • The drama sessions take place after school on a weekly basis for one hour, usually between 3:20 PM and 4:20 PM, at local primary schools.
  • Payment is £32.50 per session.
  • Several afternoons are available to start from September (Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays), with the potential for additional sessions to be added later and occasional cover shifts.
  • The position is well-suited for individuals with another morning/evening job, those on a gap year, or students with a flexible timetable.
  • Preparatory training, ongoing support, session plans, first aid training, and safety instruction are provided by Zylo.
  • Additional daytime work may be available for tutors with skills in guitar, singing, keyboard, or drumming.

Important: We are only seeking tutors in the Brighton area at this time. This job is not suited to anyone living more than a 30-minute drive from the town. We will reject any applicants not located in the town or very close by.
