Musician-in-Residence, Hillside Secure Children’s Home

We are recruiting a Musician-in-Residence for our work at a new secure children’s home partner, Hillside, in Neath, Wales.

You will deliver a number of sessions per week, where you will teach, rehearse, and record individuals and groups of young people.

You will need to be a skilled and confident musician, able to play at least two instruments, and be able to teach to a basic level in four. Most of the work involves guitar tuition and band rehearsal, but other styles and instruments are also valuable. Above all, applicants must be assured, flexible, and comfortable with many musical styles.

The work also involves organising occasional concerts in the school, concerts for participants at local churches, and performance recording. No experience working in this environment is required as full training will be given. The successful applicant will be required to complete an enhanced DBS check.

We are an equal opportunities employer and are especially keen to encourage applications from people under-represented in our organisation. Currently, this is those from Black, Asian and minority ethnic groups.
