Music Director Search

We are seeking a New Musical Director

In April 2024, Laurence Williams, our current MD, will step down as Director of Children’s Voices.

Therefore, Children's Voices of Enfield, is seeking a new Music Director to continue making a vital difference to the music education in North East London through singing. We are a non-audition mixed gender set of two choirs for 5-8 yr olds and 9-16 yr olds. You will be responsible for conducting both choirs, and for the artistic vision of the group.

We are a charity, founded in 1994, and run lovingly for 24 years by the previous founders. After a four year stint with our current director, Laurence Williams, the choir has been rebranded and is thriving. We are on the verge of launching an outreach project through February and March in schools in Enfield to further recruit children.
You will be supported by a volunteer pianist, a musical assistant and a board of trustees.
