Description

Job Description

Making Music is the UK association for leisure-time music, with 4,000 music groups in membership including choirs, bands, ensembles of all kinds, orchestras, and more.

We are looking for a full-time Making Music Platform Manager. The role sits within our Membership & Services Team and is responsible for the delivery of our Making Music Platform service to members.

Making Music Platform is an online platform to help them run their music groups. It includes:

  • A public facing website
  • A member login area
  • Databases to manage membership and activities
  • Email communication with members and supporters
  • Tools to help with group management including: document sharing, invoicing, data reporting and taking card payments for memberships, merchandise and event bookings

We are looking for someone who is organised, practical and proactive. They should be able to work as part of a team and use their own initiative to try new ideas and drive work forward.

The Making Music Platform is an IT product and so good IT skills are needed but that does not necessarily mean in-depth technical knowledge (e.g. html or php). Full training on the specifics of Making Music Platform will be provided. The key things for this role are: a technical, logical and curious mind, and the ability to communicate effectively with non-technical people.

The 37.5 hours per week can be worked flexibly, and at least some of them from home, by agreement with your line manager. We would expect you to spend at least 3 days each week in our London office in Moorgate.

This is a friendly team, and our bright and lively office is located in one of the busiest areas of London, with excellent transport links and nice places to spend your lunchtimes or meet friends after work.

How to Apply

We are looking for the best person for this role, whatever your past opportunities, so we are asking you to complete three tasks online, and your answers to these will be the only information the two staff members making a longlist will look at.

We understand that having different voices from all sections of society in our team will help us be the best organisation we can be and best support our diverse membership. We especially welcome applications from disabled people, people of the Global Majority or people whose socio-economic background has limited their opportunities.

We are committed to making adjustments to our application process. Get in touch and tell us what we can do: we want you to have the best chance at showing us what you are capable of.
