The administrator plays a vital role in facilitating smooth operations by managing schedules, and coordinating communication between all who work with Music for Life. The ideal candidate should be highly organised with excellent time management, fastidious attention to detail and capable of working in a fast-paced, client facing environment.

Music for Life takes on all of the administrative duties involved in delivering music lessons, enabling tutors and musicians to focus on delivering the high quality musical opportunities to the thousands of students each week. The employed staff members at Music for Life are all home-working enabling us to work within a wide area as we are not limited to a geographical area. Meeting regularly for meetings and events, we are a connected and focused team.

For over thirty years, Music for Life has provided children something special, teaching over  3,500 students each week across over 130 schools, working in partnership with over 100 music tutors. We hold the distinguished award of music not-for-profit organisation of the year for 2025-26, an achievement we held for 2024-2025 also. Special remarks were made for the high quality tuition that takes place each day in school across both individual and small group lessons, as well as whole class music tuition.

Unlike most other music services, Music for Life is self sufficient, not receiving public funding directly. This means we are much less affected by any cuts to music education funding, enabling us to reinvest tens of thousands of pounds each year to provide ensemble opportunities, exciting workshops and spectacular concerts.

Music, like language, is a fundamental part of human existence and of the societies in which we live. Music for Life believes strongly that music has the power to transform and enrich lives, particularly from a young age. Our focus at Music for Life is to inspire the next generation of music makers, enabling them to create their own music and build confidence, through high quality music tuition.

I want to thank you for your interest in this role and I look forward to welcoming an application from you.
