  Brass Bands England is looking to fill two part-time posts

Brass Bands England (BBE) has announced that it is recruiting two new staff members, with the successful applicants due to take up their posts early in 2019.

Based in its National Office in Barnsley, the part-time positions of Education & Development Co-ordinator and Membership Support Officer will each provide three days of employment per week as part of BBE's growing operation.

Growing team

BBE's Chief Executive Office, Kenny Crookston told 4BR: "These roles have been created due to the impending departure of Sophie Anderson, our current Education & Development Manager.

Sophie has been outstanding in her role in the time she has spent with us and we wish her every success.

Having re-evaluated the workload in our small but growing team, we have come to the conclusion that the overall organisation would be best served by two part-time roles, with the Membership Support Officer providing administrative and logistical support to the development team."

14th December

He added: "We look forward to receiving applications for these key positions, which we should receive by 14th December.

We expect to be in a position to carry out interviews in Barnsley on 20th December and we would like to have our new team members in position as early in 2019 as possible."
