About the Australan Girls Choir
The Australian Girls Choir (AGC) is Australia’s leading children’s performing arts organisation, dedicated to empowering girls through music. We have more than 6,000 choristers training in six Australian cities. We’re looking for an energetic and talented individual to join our senior team, and accompany our top of level, Performing Choir, during rehearsals in Canberra for 2027.

About the role
This is a wonderful opportunity for someone who enjoys developing young voices, refining musicianship and nurturing confident, expressive performers.

Working alongside experienced music educators, you'll help our most senior choristers strengthen their vocal technique, musical interpretation and performance skills as they prepare for a range of exciting performance opportunities.

In this role, you will:

• Coach and develop senior choristers, building vocal technique, musicianship, confidence and stage presence.
• Lead engaging rehearsals that encourage musical excellence, creativity and a love of singing.
• Support choristers in learning and interpreting a diverse range of repertoire.
• Lead AGC ensembles at concerts, public engagements, rehearsal weekends and our annual five-day music school in April.
• Collaborate and team teach with experienced musicians and educators.

What we’re looking for:
We're particularly interested in hearing from people with experience in one or more of the following areas:

• Vocal coaching or singing tuition, including one-on-one or group instruction.
• Choral music, ensemble leadership or conducting.
• Musical theatre, vocal performance or related performing arts disciplines.

You'll also bring:

• A strong understanding of vocal technique and a passion for developing young singers.
• The confidence to lead, inspire and motivate a group of talented young performers.
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills and a collaborative approach to working with others.
• Availability for weekly Thursday evening rehearsals during school terms, plus occasional weekend rehearsals and events (approximately eight per year).
• A music or teaching qualification is welcome but not essential. We value relevant experience, musical ability and enthusiasm for working with young performers.
• A valid Working with Children Check is required.

*Confident piano skills to support rehearsals, including warm-ups and repertoire learning, would be highly regarded. Concert accompaniment is not required.

Why join us?
Many of our team members balance AGC work with full-time roles. They tell us this role not only complements their own performance practice but also delivers a huge sense of personal fulfilment. At AGC, we work hard, support each other, and have a lot of fun along the way.
