Work with us

We continually develop our programmes, activities and the provision of instrumental lessons which provies working opportunities across Derby and Derbyshire all year round. The areas we are actively recruiting are listed below.

Instrumental and Vocal Teaching

Instrumental and vocal teaching is undertaken by teachers who have, through interview, been accredited by the Derby & Derbyshire Music Partnership.

Once accredited, teachers are given the opportunity to create their own timetable of teaching, dependent on demand. Teachers are supported by an Area Leader and a series of continuing professional development.

South East Derbyshire Music Centre (SEDMC), based in Kirk Hallam, is looking for an enthusiastic and inspiring Ensemble Director to lead their Foundations String Orchestra.

As ensemble director for our Foundations String Orchestra, you will play a key role in nurturing the musical growth of our youngest string players. This position is about much more than leading rehearsals; it’s about building confidence, developing core ensemble skills, and creating a welcoming environment where beginners can thrive and enjoy making music together.
