FCMG (Finchley Children’s Music Group), founded in 1958 with Benjamin Britten as its President, is London’s leading children’s choir with over 190 singers aged between 4 and 18 across five choirs. Under the direction of Grace Rossiter since 2001, the choirs are well known for their natural, vibrant vocal quality and high level of musicianship and professionalism.

In addition to our own regular self-promoted concerts, FCMG is frequently invited to take part in performances of larger choral works with world class conductors and orchestras and in recordings for radio, television and film. We also commission new repertoire from leading UK composers, including new ambitious works for our recent 60th anniversary.

The ideal candidate will have excellent people skills, a genuine passion for participatory arts, the ability to work independently, and meticulous computer use, e.g. with database entry.
