Sing Up is a music education company that believes in the power of singing to transform lives. We support schools, teachers and music practitioners through high-quality resources and training. We’re looking for a strategic and relationship-driven Partnership Manager to help us grow and deepen our connections with organisations across the education and cultural sectors.
We are an innovative and future focused team, who share a passion for improving the ways in which education supports children and young people to achieve their potential, particularly in the context of emerging technologies, creativity and the arts.
We recognise the power of partnerships to leverage these opportunities, and this role is central to that vision.
Job Description
As Partnership Manager, you’ll play a key role in developing and managing partnerships with Music Education Hubs, Academy Trusts, cultural organisations, charities, and advocacy groups.
