NYO Open Manager

The National Youth Orchestra (NYO) is the UK’s leading organisation championing orchestral music as a powerful agent for teenage development.

We activate teenagers’ confidence, optimism and skills to play their part in the world today, through performing and sharing extraordinary music.

The NYO Open Manager leads on the logistical planning and delivery of the NYO Open Programme, our national invitation to musical teenagers and youth organisations to join the NYO community and take part in music-making activities and musical encounters with NYO. Over 1,000 teenagers participate in NYO Open annually, with many thousands more experiencing performances and activities as audience members.

We are looking for a talented administrator with experience in arts and/or education, with good knowledge of the secondary school sector and a strong interest in working with young people.

At the National Youth Orchestra, you’ll work as part of a supportive, friendly and adventurous staff team. Learning and personal growth are intrinsic to every role.

Our spacious and light offices near Holborn in central London are a hive of activity, a space for collaboration and ideas. Hybrid working is standard for most roles, with a flexible and supportive culture. Most staff spend time enjoying and supporting NYO projects, concerts and events, sharing music with young people across the UK.

NYO offers a season ticket loan scheme, cycle-to-work scheme, health cash plan, retail and entertainment discounts and a 24/7 counselling and support helpline.
