Christ Church Bexleyheath is a large and thriving town centre church. The choral tradition is at the heart of our Sunday worship and we are keen to find a Director of Music who can inspire and help develop the musical life of the church. We have an SATB choir of around a dozen adults, a junior choir and an accomplished organist, who plays our magnificent Hunter organ. Our weekly Sunday services are at 10am (Sung Eucharist with motet) and 6pm (BCP Evensong with hymns and anthem). Choir practices are on Friday evenings during term times.
The main roles of the Director of Music will be to lead and conduct the adult choir, junior choir, and select the music to be sung each week in keeping with the liturgy and church calendar. There may also be an opportunity to be involved in directing or playing with our worship band/music group, which plays once a month.
Remuneration will be fully in line with rates set out by the Royal School of Church Music.
For an informal discussion about the role, please contact the vicar, Reverend Trevor Wyatt : revtrevorwyatt@outlook.com or 07860 306746
Closing date: 16th September 2022
