Summary
We’re looking for a Music Development Officer to join our fantastic team at Disability Arts Cymru! Do you have a passion for music and a commitment to promoting the rights of disabled people? This could be the perfect opportunity for you. If you’re excited by the power of art to explore social issues and inspire real change, we’d love to hear from you.
What it’s like to work with us
Disability Arts Cymru (DAC) is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation funded by the Arts Council of Wales. We’re a membership organisation that produces and promotes art which reflects the lived experience of disabled people in Wales and champions equality across the arts. At the heart of everything we do is the social model of disability. We work to challenge barriers and negative attitudes, helping individuals and organisations understand that it is society and negative attitudes, not impairments, that disable people.
Working for DAC means joining a small, highly experienced, and enthusiastic team based across Wales. Most of our work is home-based, though you’ll be expected to attend events around the country and visit our headquarters in Carmarthen or Cardiff from time to time. Our staff benefit from a generous annual leave allowance, including a Christmas and New Year office shutdown, additional discretionary days, two team social days each year, and a friendly weekly remote coffee chat over Zoom.
What you’ll be doing
You will manage and support a group of DAC musician members, helping them to create new work, access opportunities, and grow both creatively and professionally. This will include hosting events, developing and leading projects, building and maintaining relationships with partner organisations in Wales and beyond, administering and supporting arts commissions, and delivering training when required.
What we’re looking for
- Practical experience in the arts, specifically within a music context.
- Proven experience planning and delivering projects to a high standard.
- An effective communicator, able to engage with people at all levels.
- A positive team player, who collaborates well and builds strong relationships internally and externally.
- Strong organisational skills, with the ability to manage multiple projects, meet deadlines, and work effectively remotely.
- A lived understanding of the experiences of disabled and/or deaf people in Wales, alongside a passion for using art to drive social change.
Knowledge, skills and experience
Essential
- Relevant experience, or demonstrable knowledge, of delivering socially impactful arts projects in Wales.
- Strong awareness of the music industry in Wales and established relationships with key people in the sector.
- Educated to degree level, or with significant equivalent industry experience.
- Ability to plan, deliver, and support arts projects and events.
- Strong understanding of the lived experience of disability and a working knowledge of the Social Model of Disability.
- Effective interpersonal skills with the ability to build and maintain relationships, and to communicate effectively with people at all levels.
- Strong organisational skills, with the ability to manage time, prioritise workloads, and deliver to deadlines in a home-working/hybrid environment.
- Ability to work positively and collaboratively within a small staff team, including cross-artform collaboration.
- Excellent IT skills, including MS Office and digital communication platforms (e.g. Zoom, Teams).
- Experience gathering and evaluating feedback to report on project impact and member needs.
- Clear understanding of equality, diversity, and access in the arts, with particular emphasis on the Social Model of Disability.
Desirable
- Fluent Welsh speaker
- Experience of delivering training

The role: This is a rewarding role where every day brings the opportunity to make a positive difference to people's lives. We regularly receive testimonials from service users describing the life-changing impact of receiving support from our caseworkers in the National Road Victim Service.
Working location: mostly remote work with some travel required. Based in Surrey or Hampshire you will deliver a face-to-face service to clients in their own home or safe meeting place across the Surrey and Hampshire area as well as providing support by Teams, phone, email or other means to suit the service user. We take a person-centred approach so the amount of travel will vary depending on your caseload at the time. You’re in control of your own diary.
Why this role is important: Every 20 minutes, someone is killed or seriously injured on UK roads. For families affected, the emotional and practical challenges are immense. As a Caseworker, you will provide trauma-informed care to individuals and families suffering from the sudden bereavement or life-altering injury of a loved one. Working mostly remotely, with some home visits to service users, you’ll offer vital emotional and practical support—including helping them access therapeutic resources, financial assistance, and guidance through the complexities of medical and legal processes.
About Brake: Brake is a renowned and respected road safety charity with a 30-year history dedicated to supporting people affected by road crashes and advocating for safer streets.
You'll join a closely knit team of fellow caseworkers, each using their individual experience and skills to provide person-centred support to victims. This provides a ready-made peer group who share best practice and knowledge and support each other so, in turn, they can best support road victims. There's no sugar coating it, this isn't an easy role, it requires a special type of person with strong resilience, but the reward is a strong sense of purpose, every day. You can’t pour from an empty cup, so we have strong support systems in place to support our caseworker's wellbeing, including clinical supervision.
What we offer:
· A generous 35 days of annual leave (including bank holidays and 3-day end of year shutdown)
· Birthday day off
· Flexible working (choose a working pattern to suit you between the hours of 8am-6pm Mon-Fri)
· Enhanced sick pay and compassionate leave
· Death in service benefit
· Pension
· Employee Assistance Programme
· Clinical supervision and excellent support
· A rewarding role with purpose
· Be part of a skilled, friendly team with an engaged Board of Trustees
· Opportunity to attend prestigious events such as the Brake annual reception and awards (if you want to)
Who we're looking for
Full training will be provided under the guidance of our dedicated Training Officer. Our induction program has been developed to equip caseworkers with the skills they need to provide high quality support to road victims and covers topics such as being trauma-informed, safeguarding and risk management. We're open to candidates from all sorts of backgrounds, as long as you're a compassionate, self-starter with a background in providing high-quality emotional support and advocacy. Your experience in roles within the NHS, any health and social care, road safety, counselling, lived experience or any type of casework could make you an ideal candidate.
Essential Requirements:
- A full, clean UK driving licence and access to your own vehicle (travel expenses are reimbursed)
- Resident in the Surrey or Hapshire area.
- Experience delivering frontline support, preferably involving sudden bereavement or heightened vulnerabilities.
· Strong advocacy and research skills to liaise with multiple organisations on behalf of service users.
- Competency in I.T skills to work remotely.
Desirable Experience:
Comprehensive understanding of the processes involved in the criminal justice system and coronial process
