The Sixteen £20,000 - £24,000 dependent on experience Closing date 25 August 2022
After 42 years of worldwide performance and recording, The Sixteen is recognised as one of the world’s greatest ensembles. Comprising both choir and period-instrument orchestra, The Sixteen’s total commitment to the music it performs is its greatest distinction. A special reputation for performing early English polyphony, masterpieces of the Renaissance, bringing fresh insights into Baroque and early Classical music and a diversity of 20th- and 21st-century music, is drawn from the passions of conductor and founder Harry Christophers. At home in the UK, The Sixteen are “The Voices of Classic FM” and Associate Artists of Kings Place and Wigmore Hall, London. The group promotes The Choral Pilgrimage, an annual tour of the UK’s finest cathedrals, which aims to bring music back to the buildings for which it was written. The Sixteen featured in the highly successful BBC television series, Sacred Music, presented by actor Simon Russell Beale. In 2011 the group launched a new training programme for young singers called Genesis Sixteen. Aimed at 18 to 23 year-olds, this is the UK’s first fully funded choral programme for singers designed specifically to bridge the gap from student to professional practitioner.

The Office & Marketing Co-ordinator will be responsible for co-ordinating and overseeing The Sixteen’s London office and for providing back-up support to the team across various functions, with a particular focus on marketing. The post-holder will have a pivotal role in the smooth day-to-day running of The Sixteen.
