Music and Technology Officer, Open Up Music

As Music and Technology Officer, you will play a key role in supporting the musical and technical operations of the https://noyo.org.uk/ - National Open Youth Orchestra (NOYO), contributing to its success and impact for young disabled musicians.

Your responsibilities will include managing equipment and supporting the creation of music resources and arrangements. As well as providing musical and technical guidance to musicians and their families, teachers and Music Leaders, you will support the development of our accessible musical instrument, the https://theclarion.uk/ - Clarion. This is an exciting opportunity for a skilled and organised individual with a passion for music and technology, who is eager to drive innovation and accessibility within an inclusive music programme.

Diversity, equity, and inclusion are at the heart of who we are. We take our responsibility to acknowledge, challenge and dismantle barriers within music and our organisation extremely seriously. To that end, we are especially interested in receiving applications from Disabled people.

We also recognise that systems of privilege, structural disadvantage and barriers to participation often intersect with one another. For this reason, we particularly welcome applications from people from other structurally disadvantaged backgrounds and underrepresented groups. This may include people from the Global Majority, migrants, refugees, LGBTQIA+ people and/or people from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.
