Organist & Director of Music Vacancy - Dunkeld Cathedral

The Parish of Dunkeld Church of Scotland is looking for an experienced organist and Director of Music. Working with the Minister, you will be responsible for music during the weekly Sunday Services in Dunkeld Cathedral and in the winter months in Little Dunkeld Kirk as well as occasional evening Sunday services as required. This is a part-time appointment.

Dunkeld Cathedral has a Bevington pipe organ (two manual with pedal board) and a digital piano. Little Dunkeld Kirk’s pipe organ requires some remedial attention, and also has an acoustic piano. There is a choir of about 16 singers who contribute to the weekly services and a small band of enthusiastic musicians who take part regularly.

We are looking for someone with the skills and enthusiasm to develop music within the congregation and to encourage participation in music-making in our services.
