Sistema Scotland believes all children and young people in Scotland have great potential, skills and talents. However, too many children face huge barriers to being able to recognise and develop their potential, inequalities such as poverty and discrimination that limit their opportunities to learn, grow and become confident, healthy adults. Sistema Scotland uses music and nurturing relationships to tackle some of these inequalities, through our community-focused Big Noise programmes in Raploch and Fallin (Stirling), Govanhill (Glasgow) Torry (Aberdeen) and Douglas (Dundee). We will be opening our fifth centre in Wester Hailes in Edinburgh early next year.

You will be a key member of our Communications & Marketing team, sharing the positive impacts of Big Noise for children and young people living in identified communities across Scotland, using a wide range of media and channels.

You will also provide support and guidance to staff in digital activities and use of technology.
