Learning & Participation Administrator

Founded in 1882, The Royal College of Music (RCM) is a world leading music conservatoire with a prestigious history and contemporary outlook. Our excellence was recognised by the 2025 QS World University Rankings, in which we were ranked as the global No. 1 institution for both Music and Performing Arts. The College has held this world-leading place in Performing Arts for the four successive years, while Music is a new subject introduced to the rankings in 2024.

We are seeking to appoint a Learning & Participation Administrator to support the work of RCM Sparks, the RCM's flagship Learning and Participation department. RCM Sparks run a series of public events and activities for schools both at the Royal College of Music, as well as a special programme in our local area, partnering with other organisations to provide the benefits of music education where they are most needed in the community. The work of Sparks is based around clear learning pathways, which cater for children's changing needs as they develop, so we can continue to foster musicianship and learning skills year-on-year throughout their educational journey. The programme is designed by experienced RCM staff and led by outstanding leaders who are experts in their fields. The leaders are supported by teams of RCM students who are trained and nurtured in the area of learning and participation work, in turn developing a vibrant new generation of educators with relevant and meaningful practical experience.
