Apollo Music Projects is looking for a Trustee to join our Board of Trustees. Apollo Music Projects brings the magic of live classical music to children who might not otherwise experience it. We work with primary and special schools to transform children’s lives through music, promoting wellbeing, self-confidence and creativity. We aim to make classical music accessible and relevant to all children regardless of their prior knowledge, experience or background.
We prioritise partnerships with schools from disadvantaged parts of North and East London and ensure our programme engages the entire year group rather than a select group of children. All of our sessions are interactive with full involvement from the children.
More than 18,000 children have benefited from our programme since we started in Hackney in 2004 and we are poised to partner with an even greater number of schools this year.
This is a wonderful opportunity to join the board of a dynamic and successful organisation.
“Apollo is a national treasure" – Sir Simon Rattle

The Board of Trustees takes on the ultimate legal and financial responsibility for all the activities of the organisation. They maintain an overview of policy and strategic direction rather than being involved in day-to-day operations.
We are looking for someone with:
- A clear understanding of and commitment to the values and objectives of Apollo Music Projects
- The ability to work effectively as a member of a team whilst contributing an independent perspective
- Understanding and acceptance of the legal duties, responsibilities and liabilities of trusteeship as well of the respective roles of the chair, trustees and executive management.
- Financial experience, particularly in the areas of accounting and budgeting. This is desirable rather than essential in a potential candidate.
- Experience in Education. This is desirable rather than essential in a potential candidate.
General responsibilities will include:
- Providing guidance and oversight to ensure that Apollo Music Projects develops the structure and financial sustainability to deliver on its objectives.
- Participating in approving strategy and evaluating performance.
- Acing as ambassador for Apollo Music Projects.
- Ensuring that Apollo Music Projects complies with charity law.
The Trustee will be expected to attend four Trustee meetings each year, held in London, and to attend occasional events, workshops and concerts
Candidates will be interviewed by a small panel, and should expect more than one form of interview, both online and in person.
Apollo Music Projects is keen to ensure that the Board is representative of the community we serve and particularly welcomes applications from candidates of diverse backgrounds.
The role will remain open until we have found the right candidate.
