Delivery of Activity

Ensembles Tuition: £32.45 per hour

Bristol Beacon is the award-winning music education hub for the city of Bristol. We work with inspiring and experienced Freelance Music Practitioners from different musical disciplines who teach in a range of settings including in primary and secondary schools and at our busy music centres in Bristol.

We are currently looking for a freelance instrumental tutor with experience and expertise in teaching and leading an orchestral percussion section to work in our Senior Ensembles Centre on Saturdays and at performances.

We are an inclusive practice organisation and as such welcome applications from musicians experienced in working with children whose personal circumstances present certain barriers, including children in care and children with SEND.

Applications are invited from creative musicians from all sections of the community with proven teaching excellence, good communication skills and a passion and commitment for teaching music to children and young people from all backgrounds. We particularly encourage applications from disabled and ethnically diverse backgrounds as these groups are currently underrepresented within the arts and culture sectors. All of our Freelance Practitioners receive comprehensive and high quality CPD throughout the year, including training, networking, and mentoring.

At the moment we have work that is immediately available, so we are keen to hear from experienced Music Practitioners.

Please note the closing date for this role is 9.00am Monday 2 June 2025.

Bristol Beacon recognise, respect and value individual difference. We are committed to the wellbeing of our staff and to being an Equal Opportunities employer and attracting diverse talent from sections of the community currently underrepresented in the culture sector to help us to develop a more diverse workforce. We hold silver status for the Charter of Best Practice from Attitude is Everything, and we are Disability Confident Committed.
