• Conduct and rehearse the College's premier string ensembles and support the development of junior ensembles.
• Provide artistic and educational leadership for the String Program, ensuring a high standard of teaching and performance.
• Work collaboratively with the Head of Music to develop and implement the strategic direction of the String Program.

• Mentor instrumental staff and contribute to curriculum and co-curricular initiatives where appropriate.

Hours are negotiated with the Head of Music; however, the successful applicant should be available to work on campus at least part of two days per week during school terms. Total contact time is approximately 5/6 hours a week.
