Description of vacancy: 

The successful candidate should be a competent musician and an experienced and versatile conductor with a broad knowledge of a full range of choral repertoire, capable of coaching and encouraging members to bring out the very best in themselves and the choir.  Patience, a sense of fun and a commitment to our ethos of inclusivity are important.  The person appointed will work collaboratively with the committee, show strong leadership and have excellent communication skills. 

The appointment is remunerated dependent on experience, and would be subject to an annual review, on a fee per rehearsal/performance basis plus reasonable travel expenses and as such will therefore be a self-employed position.
