Working closely with the Artistic Director and wider team of JAM (John Armitage Memorial Trust), the Operations and Administration Manager will help keep the organisation running smoothly across operations, artist liaison, systems, fundraising support, communications and event delivery.

Performers include VOCES8, The King's Singers, Alexander Armstrong, BBC Singers, the Britten Sinfonia, Changeling Theatre and the London Tango Quintet. Year-round JAM runs community art and singing projects, enabling our Marsh residents to flourish in this typically arts-deprived area.
