Considering a career in music?

West Sussex Music is looking for incredible people with bags of musical talent and the confidence to teach children and young people. 

Roles vary from busy instrumental and vocal teaching vacancies in schools in Crawley, East Grinstead, and Horsham to a couple of hours a week at evening and Saturday music centres across the county. 

The roles that are currently being recruited are for guitar, keyboard and piano teachers to teach in school in the north of the county. A high level of talent is a must, as is the ability to work effectively with children and young people.  

If you have the skills and the knowledge, and are interested in learning more, go here for further details. 

Tina Oberman (photographed with one of her students), who has worked with West Sussex Music for over a year and a half teaching the guitar, said: “I love working with young people and enjoy nurturing their talent. I’m energised by their enthusiasm and creativity and the role itself is stimulating and exciting.  

“The support I receive from the team at West Sussex Music is excellent. My management colleagues are always happy to answer queries, listen to feedback and ideas I may have, and I receive regular CPD to keep my teaching skills up to date.” 

If you’re looking for something which fits alongside your current job and commitments, WSM is also expanding its music centre team with teachers who are proficient in all manner of instruments including orchestral, contemporary and percussion, as well as global music. This can be for as little as two hours a week in evenings and Saturdays.

The music centres are based at Bognor Regis, Chichester, Horsham and Worthing so offer plenty of opportunities to teach at one, or all of them.  

Many teachers at the music centres do a few hours alongside performing in their day jobs and other commitments. 

James Underwood, Chief Executive of West Sussex Music, said: 

“Our need for more teachers to join our incredible teach of music leaders comes from an increasing demand for lessons from enthusiastic children and young people across the county which is truly something to be celebrated. 

“We’re keen to recruit in as many passionate and talented people as possible to meet the demand from children and young people who are keen to learn.”
