About Us
The Buskerteers Choir is a network of community choirs with a clear mission: to make singing accessible, build friendships, and raise money for charity. Since 2020 we've grown to 28 choirs, 1,500 members, and have raised almost £200,000 for good causes.
We're looking for confident vocalists who play guitar or piano to lead choirs in their area. In this case, we're looking for someone to take over 4 existing choirs. You don't need choir-leading experience—just strong musical skills, a positive approach, and enthusiasm for bringing people together.

* Teach harmonies by ear (no sheet music required)
* Organise end-of-term gigs to raise money for charity and celebrate your choirs' achievements
* Create a welcoming, inclusive space for singers of all abilities
What We're Looking For
* Strong vocalist and guitarist/pianist
* Friendly, approachable, and encouraging personality
* Comfortable teaching and leading groups
* Full UK driving licence and access to a car
What We Offer
* £100 per rehearsal (£400 per week in term time, guaranteed)
* Additional end-of-term bonus based on choir membership income, which increases with experience
* Extra pay for workshops and major events
* Training, resources, and support
* Full marketing support to launch and grow your choirs
* Flexible self-employed role with evenings only (Mon–Thurs), leaving daytimes, Fridays, and weekends free
* A chance to make a real difference through music and charitable fundraising
