Application deadline: 09:00 31st August
Interviews: 14th & 16th September via Zoom
Music Patron is an ambitious new online platform that will connect composers directly with patrons. The Digital Engagement Manager is a new role for Music Patron within Sound and Music. This is an exciting and evolving opportunity for an curious, entrepreneurial and data-driven individual, with excellent communications skills, to set the direction and lead Music Patron’s digital engagement strategy.
We’re looking for candidates who are keen to join us on this start-up journey as we take Music Patron from concept to reality. Perhaps you have a background in a non-arts field and are keen to bring your skills, experience, innovative approach and creativity into a musical context. Or perhaps you already work in the arts, but want to use your audience-facing, marketing, technological and business skills in a digital start-up context.
The successful candidate will have a strong interest in new developments in digital technologies and marketing trends, and experience of putting these into practice. You will care deeply about understanding and engaging audiences, have a proven track record in crafting clear and compelling communications for varying audience segments, have a strong awareness of best marketing practices, and have expertise in developing and implementing new insight capture and data analysis methodologies. You will be a strategic-thinker.
The role is 3 days a week and we are happy to consider flexible working patterns. The role can be fulfilled remotely or at Sound and Music’s office (Oxford House, in Bethnal Green, London), although ideally the successful candidate would come to London approx. once a month for an in-person meeting with the Music Patron team.
You will work directly with and report to Sonia Stevenson, Head of Music Patron. You will also work closely with the rest of the Sound and Music team, especially the Audience Engagement Team and Head of Digital and Audience Engagement, alongside a small number of external contractors.
Please submit your application before 09:00 on 31st August.
Interviews will take place on zoom on 14th & 16th September.
