Job description

Overview

Join The Glasgow Barons as Creative Communities Producer, connecting Govan, recovery, refugee, and school music groups through hands‑on community, events, and creative engagement.

Key Focus

The Creative Communities Producer will be the Community Liaison Partner for Govan and our three city‑wide communities of interest:

• Those recovering from drug and alcohol addiction
• Asylum seekers and refugees
• The baby strings programme within Primary Schools across the city

This is a broad and varied role which involves implementing key strategic Glasgow Barons objectives to deliver ‘on the ground’ musical services in the community. Implementation will involve interacting with the public in a shopping centre, poster and leaflet drops, face‑to‑face engagement with groups, and delivering evening and weekend work from the office based in the Govan area of Glasgow.

What We’re Looking For

A community connector who can build and maintain strong, positive relationships across Govan and with the specific groups (recovery communities, refugees/asylum seekers, and school music projects).

A practical organiser / producer who can plan and deliver events from start to finish – booking people and venues, managing logistics, attending on the day and solving problems calmly.

A confident communicator and representative who can speak to the public, partner organisations and stakeholders and act as the “face” of The Glasgow Barons in the community.

A hands‑on marketing awareness to promote activities through social media, posters and local networks to raise the organisation’s profile.

A responsible budget manager who can track costs, handle cash when needed and provide accurate input to financial and board reports.

A candidate who can gather and report impact, collecting data and feedback to show the value of the work to funders and leadership.

What We Offer

• A 21 hours per week contract
• A salary of £16,800.00
• 118 hours annual leave per year (including public holidays)
• An exciting and varied role
• Learning and development opportunities for the right candidate

Closing Date

5th December 2025, 5pm
