The Learning Programme Manager will be responsible for the project management, organisation, delivery and evaluation of the Keep on Moving project. They will manage and facilitate the participation, engagement and volunteering opportunities available to local communities, in particular our target audiences of young people (aged 11 -25 years) and older retired people.

The successful candidate will be an enthusiastic and capable self-starter with an understanding of – and passion for – music. They will have a keen eye for detail, superior organisational skills, and be familiar with informal and formal learning and skills practice. They will be committed to community involvement, equality and diversity.
