About the role
We’re looking for a calm, organised and proactive person to lead our student services and operations at Greenwich Music School.
You’ll be the key support role in a small, dynamic team—handling enquiries, scheduling lessons, coordinating student journeys, and helping improve the systems that support our work. This role blends people-facing service with behind-the-scenes structure and efficiency, all in support of high-quality, accessible music education.
You’ll be the only dedicated operations and student services team member, working closely with the co-founders (the CEO and Principal). There’s no wider admin team—so this is a role with real responsibility, variety, and scope to shape how things work. You’ll need to be comfortable working independently, making decisions, and managing your own workload, while staying closely aligned with our values and priorities.
It’s a great fit for someone who enjoys figuring things out, building processes from scratch, and improving how things work. You’ll need strong judgement, attention to detail, and the ability to keep calm in a changing environment. While the role involves plenty of day-to-day admin, it’s also an opportunity to shape how things work and improve them over time.
We admire the “manager of one” mindset (from 37signals)—someone who takes ownership of their work, communicates clearly, and doesn’t wait to be told what to do next.
Key responsibilities
• Be the first point of contact for new and enrolled student and parent enquiries
• Schedule and manage termly lesson timetables across programmes
• Coordinate teacher availability, room bookings and scheduling changes
• Support systems for enrolments, cancellations, bursaries and SEND provision
• Maintain accurate records in our CRM and shared platforms
• Help develop templates, workflows and processes that save time and improve experience
• Support adoption of new tech (e.g. ticketing tools, AI, automation features)
• Assist with concert and event logistics (in-person if local)
• Act as first aider and safeguarding contact (training provided)
About you
You’ll thrive in this role if you are:
• A confident generalist who enjoys juggling priorities and figuring things out
• Calm, clear and professional in communication, both written and verbal
• Comfortable with some mess, uncertainty and building-as-you-go
• Thoughtful about what’s worth spending time on, and what can be templated or automated
• Friendly, responsible and aligned with our values of creativity, positivity, quality and respect
• Curious and capable with new tools – not necessarily an expert, but willing to learn
• Able to work independently and take ownership of your work
• Available on Mondays, to follow up on weekend enquiries
Why join us?
• Be part of a small, forward-thinking team making a meaningful impact
• Work flexibly, with remote and hybrid options
• Help shape the systems and experience behind high-quality music education
• Take ownership and contribute to something growing and evolving
• Training and support provided (including safeguarding and first aid)
Our mission is to enable creative, artistic and personal growth through music education, for the people of Greenwich and surrounding areas.

The Advocacy Academy is an activist youth movement. We serve as the political home for grassroots youth organising and the catalyst for collective action. The lives of the young people we work alongside have been directly shaped by living in an unjust world, and we exist to turn their anger into action.
Young people are often the catalysts for major social change, from the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee at the heart of the Civil Rights Movement, to the Soweto Uprising mobilising young people to resist the apartheid regime's education policies, to the Sunrise Movement redrawing the electoral map across America, and more recently encampments and protests across the world protesting the genocide in Palestine. How successfully they achieve real and lasting change depends on whether they are organised and whether they have the right strategy and tactics to be effective.
This is why we are looking for a Director capable of envisioning the full journey of a young person through their time with The Advocacy Academy from the first activation point to whenever they choose to end their journey with us. We want someone who is excited to ensure the educational and operational excellence required to deliver this life-changing experience - and who’s bursting with ideas to make it even better year-on-year.
We want our young leaders to win and to build real power across the UK that ensures that the generations that follow aren’t just inheriting our mess, but our equipped and ready to fix it. That’s why we are looking for someone to be the engine behind our Programmes and Partnerships department. You will be highly motivated, with a high standard for yourself and others. We’re seeking someone creative, ambitious and disciplined, with a track record of delivering outstanding training and curriculum, and a passion for managing a high-performing team. You will have a strong moral compass, experience working within political or anti-oppression spaces, a love of making good trouble, and a proven commitment to building people’s capacity to challenge the status quo.
Before you skim the job description, please remember you don’t have to tick all the boxes for each role to apply. Charity experience is not a requirement! We all experience a bit of imposter syndrome, including the staff here at The Advocacy Academy. Let’s name it for what it is - a manifestation of the oppression many of us face on a day to day. If this role pulls you and you believe you could make a difference, then apply anyway or reach out to us to discuss more!
