We are looking for a person who has a passion for music; a good knowledge of Anglican traditions, both old and new; is a dynamic and committed leader; and will take our choirs to higher levels of musicality with a challenging program which incorporates various styles of music.
The time requirements are approximately 18-20 hours per week and we will work within the Royal Canadian College of Organists guidelines related to the pay grid. The deadline for applications is June 16, 2023 and we hope to commence interviews for the position the beginning of July 2023.
