The Hallé Choir Manager reports to the Head of Ensembles of the Hallé Concerts Society and is responsible for the management and day to day administration of the Hallé Choir. The Hallé Choir is a symphony chorus of 200 voluntary adult singers, which performs with the Hallé and on its own.

The Hallé Choir has its own Committee which represents the membership and fulfils some administrative responsibilities. This role requires an approachable, diplomatic and assertive personality able to work effectively with people from many different walks of life. They will work in collaboration with the Choral Director, Choir Committee, Ensembles artistic and administrative teams and all other Hallé departments. The Ensembles Team sits within the HALLÉ CONNECT umbrella and encompasses all of the Hallé’s work away from the formal concert platform.

The post is part-time permanent 60% FTE based on a 36.25-hour week. Our core office hours are 09.00-17:15, from Monday to Friday. The role will largely operate from The Bridgewater Hall and Hallé St Peter’s in Manchester, with the option of some home working (for further details, please request a copy of our flexible and hybrid working policies). Rehearsals and concert performances will often be outside core office hours.

The Hallé takes equality, diversity and inclusion very seriously and welcomes applications from everyone. But simply having a diverse workforce is not enough. We want to build an inclusive environment, where everyone can develop to their full potential. We celebrate our differences, and recognise the importance of teams reflecting the activities and communities they serve. We operate an Equal Opportunities Recruitment Policy and welcome applications from all sections of the community.

The closing date for applications is 5pm Friday 17 February 2023. Interviews will be held week commencing 27 February 2023.
