Job description

Future Opening: Music Education Specialist - Pipeline Not Currently Hiring

Location: Springfield, OH (schools are across central and southwest Ohio)

Position: Music Education Specialist (Outside Sales)

Territory: Central & Southwest Ohio

Starting Pay: Base salary + uncapped commission (between $55,000 - $85,000+/yr)

Most reps fall within this range, with additional upside for top performers who focus on building strong middle school programs and growing long‑term relationships, not one‑time sales.

Help Grow School Music Programs Across Ohio

For over 70 years, Kincaid’s Music has helped people begin and advance in instrumental music.

We partner with band and orchestra directors to help their students succeed — from first rentals to advanced instruments and repairs.

Set up musicians for success.

The Role

This role is often called a road rep. At Kincaid’s, you’re more than that. You are a trusted partner to music educators — helping their programs grow, their students succeed, and their lives get easier. This is not a sit‑behind‑a‑desk job. You’ll spend your time in schools, working directly with directors, students, and parents.

What You’ll Do

• Visit band and orchestra programs across your territory
• Build strong relationships with music educators
• Help run instrument fittings and parent/rental nights
• Guide students into the right instruments
• Support step‑up and upgrade conversations
• Coordinate repairs and solve problems quickly
• Maintain and grow existing school partnerships
• Prospect and add new school accounts

When something breaks or goes wrong, you’re the person they call — and you make it right.

What Success Looks Like

A great Music Education Specialist:

• Becomes a trusted partner to music educators
• Helps directors grow their programs
• Ensures students have the right tools to succeed
• Solves problems quickly and professionally
• Communicates clearly and consistently

When this happens, directors stop seeing you as a vendor. They see you as part of their team.

Who This is For

You’ll do well here if you:

• Have a background in band or orchestra
• Enjoy building relationships and being around people
• Are organized, dependable, and self‑driven
• Can manage your own schedule and territory

This role is a strong fit for:

• Music education majors or educators
• Performers who enjoy working with people

Benefits

• Competitive Compensation (Base $55,000 - $85,000+/yr)
• Life Insurance
• Long‑ & Short‑Term Disability
• Retirement with Employer Matching
• Generous Employee Discounts
• Fun, Friendly Work Environment
