Project Manager: Concerts and Tours (Sabbatical Cover)

Birmingham Contemporary Music Group (BCMG) is seeking an enthusiastic, dynamic and organised Project Manager for our varied concerts and tours.

We are looking for a can-do person to organise all logistical elements of concerts and tours, source unusual instruments required by newly commissioned works, oversee all elements of our projects, be able to support our musicians or composers, and be ready to make concerts happen within the exciting and sometimes unfamiliar setup of a contemporary music ensemble.

This role would suit someone who is as happy in the office doing the concert planning as they are running a show from backstage, someone who can look at the whole season and work on the longer-term details, whilst also working on the intricate details of what to pay the musicians after the concert within our MU agreement.

You will need a keen eye for detail, knowledge of event management, understanding of classical music and the ability to manage multiple projects independently.

This role is a 9-month Fixed Term Contract covering a sabbatical. This contract will run from 30 September 2025 through until 30 June 2026. We are hoping for somebody who is able to start as close to 30 September as possible. Part time will be considered (with a pro-rata salary) for the right candidate. If this is something you would like to be considered for, please indicate that within your application.

To arrange a confidential, informal discussion about the position, please contact: George Lee, BCMG Executive Director by email at george@bcmg.org.uk.
