Sub-Organist and Assistant Director of Music

Bradford Cathedral has a thriving musical tradition. The ninety children and adults in our choirs come to the Cathedral to sing at four choral services each week. Our education programme gives over forty-five young people from different backgrounds free singing lessons and tuition in music theory, and recently appointed professional Section Lead and Lay Clerks work regularly with the volunteer singers. Our organ recitals draw some of the finest performers from the UK and abroad. From time to time, musicians from other Christian traditions are involved in our musical worship.

The Chapter of Bradford Cathedral seeks a musician of the highest calibre and commitment to contribute to the fulfilment of the Cathedral’s vision through the activities of the Music Department. They will be an accomplished liturgical musician, an organist and choir trainer, who is willing to offer themselves to work with the resources available, and to experiment with new material and ideas to achieve the aims of our vision. The Music Department’s programme is ambitious, with projects including recording with the Black Dyke Band planned, and at least one choir tour each year.
