Organist & Director of Music - Holy Saviour Church, Hitchin, SG5 1QG

We at Holy Saviour Church, Hitchin, are looking for an organist to play our beautiful 15-stop tracker-action organ at our Sunday services. The organ was designed and built in 1987 by John Bailey of Grant, Degens & Bradbeer, Northampton, using as much of the existing materials and pipework of the original 1865 Walker organ as possible, and was opened by Peter Hurford. It has since been regularly maintained by Bishop & Son of Ipswich, and was completely cleaned and overhauled in 2017.

Holy Saviour Anglican Church has a strong musical tradition. We have an enthusiastic RSCM-affiliated SATB choir with an excellent reputation, having performed nationally and abroad. The ideal candidate would be able to work with the choir to enhance the musical life of the church further.

Musical Requirements:

  • Good Organ/keyboard skills
  • Experience of choral direction

For more details, contact the churchwarden Brian Caswell .
