Whether you’re a seasoned musical director or a rising star ready to shine, we want to hear from you!
Do you have a passion for music that uplifts people? Are you bursting with energy, creativity, and a love for rock, pop, gospel and world music? We’re looking for an inspirational, enthusiastic, passionate and experienced Choir Leader / Musical Director for our new branch in Hailsham, East Sussex.

ABOUT US:

The Happy Place Choir is a fun-loving, inclusive and vibrant community choir that sings a wide range of songs covering rock, pop, gospel and world music. The choir has been running for almost 10 years in Eastbourne and we are now looking to set up a new branch in Hailsham. The choir is a non-audition choir and is open to both new and experienced singers from all walks of life. We meet once a week during term-time. The choir puts on a Summer and Winter concert each year and performs at local and regional events and festivals throughout the year, such as Chiddfest Music Festival.
The new choir will be based in Hailsham and will run alongside the current choir in Eastbourne, joining together for concerts and events.

• Plan musical arrangements and lead weekly choir rehearsals
• Contribute ideas and suggestions for the songs for each term
• Prepare the choir for performances
• Foster a supportive, fun and inclusive musical environment
• Inspire confidence in each singer
• Help promote the choir through social media and word of mouth
• Work closely with the choir manager to ensure the choir runs smoothly
  The Choir Manager takes care of the day-to-day running of the choir, including administration, finance, marketing, communication and organising events. Your role is primarily to plan and prepare for each session, lead the weekly choir rehearsals and conduct the performances.
