Director of Music
The Abbey of St Benedict, London, wishes to appoint a Director of Music to lead the Catholic choir of Ealing Abbey, and to contribute to the development of the Abbey’s sacred music programme in September 2026.
Founded in 1897, the Abbey maintains a high standard of liturgical and musical worship within the Catholic Benedictine tradition and this role offers the opportunity to work in a context where the choral tradition is taken seriously, and where music plays a central role in the liturgical expression of the church. Following the exceptional twenty-year tenure of the current Director, the post will suit a gifted musician who brings artistic sensitivity, professional focus, and a desire to maintain and develop a well-established tradition of excellence in church music.
The part-time role requires hours appropriate for fulfilling the responsibilities outlined in the job description. There is flexibility built in to support the growth and development of the position over time.
Subsidised accommodation available as part of a competitive salary package.
