Holy mess is spreading at Winchester Cathedral

Holy mess is spreading at Winchester Cathedral

Winchester Cathedral, having farewelled its director of music Andrew Lumsden two weeks ago, has quietly advertised for an interim successor. The ad appears only on the cathedral website and applications close next week. Interviews will be held the following day.

It looks suspiciously like a stitch-up.

Here are the details:

An exciting opportunity has become available for a full time Interim Director of Music to join us at the Cathedral on a fixed-term basis for 9 months. This position offers a salary of £44,990.40 per annum and rent-free accommodation inclusive of bills.

Working within the Liturgy and Music and reporting into the Canon Precentor and Sacrist, the post holder will be responsible for working with colleagues to organise music provision for worship and to direct the ongoing development of the Music team.

The post Holy mess is spreading at Winchester Cathedral appeared first on Slippedisc.
