Music Employment Day Event

The Music Department is excited to be running their second Employment Day for students this year, giving them a chance to find out about more about entering into the world of work in the field of music. We have guests from both the self-employed and employed sectors, all of whom represent different pathways into employment within the world of music. All our guests are experts in their field and will share insights into their area of work and, most importantly, what is required when looking for work in their area and where to find employment opportunities.

Due to the current global pandemic, we are pleased to run this event online! We hope to be able to open this event to the public. Please use the links below to join each session.
