Job Description

Music Lecturer

Temporary

Are you an experienced music professional looking to pass your skills on to the next generation of musicians?

About the Role

An education provider is looking to appoint a Music Lecturer to deliver high-quality teaching across its music provision. You'll plan and deliver engaging practical and theory sessions, create learning resources and assess learner progress, helping students build the skills and confidence they need to progress into employment or further study.

If you're new to teaching, that's not a barrier. Industry professionals are supported to work towards a recognised teaching qualification while they work.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Planning and delivering engaging lessons across a range of music programmes.
  • Teaching practical music skills alongside the theory that underpins them.
  • Assessing learner progress and providing timely, constructive feedback.
  • Maintaining accurate records of attendance, progress and achievement.
  • Contributing to curriculum development and course review, keeping content in line with current industry standards.
  • Maintaining high standards of classroom and workshop management and a positive learning environment.

What We're Looking For

Essential:

  • A Level 3 qualification or equivalent in music, or equivalent industry experience
  • Strong practical and technical knowledge of your subject
  • Ability to engage and motivate learners of mixed abilities
  • Good organisation, communication and record-keeping skills

Desirable (but not essential):

  • A recognised teaching qualification, or willingness to work towards one
  • Previous experience of teaching, assessing or instructing learners

If you're ready to pass on your experience and help learners build a future in music, we'd love to hear from you.

What's on Offer

  • Support to work towards a recognised teaching qualification while working
