Overview

A fantastic opportunity has arisen to work at Loughborough Schools Music Department, recently finalists in the Outstanding Music Department of the Year Award. We are seeking to appoint a Graduate Music Assistant to work term-time only from September 2026 until July 2027 (11 months).

In this position, you will gain extensive experience working with aspiring and ambitious young musicians towards high-quality performances in this large and vibrant music department. We have several pupils in a number of national ensembles, and many of our top scholars go on to attend the country's most prestigious conservatoires and universities to read music.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
