The Royal Academy of Music, the UK’s senior music conservatoire, has a vacancy for an Open Academy intern in our acclaimed Learning and Participation programme, with effect from September 2022.

Open Academy works strategically with partners including music hubs, community settings and other arts organisations to deliver a range of creative projects that connect Academy students with the world around them.
