Stewarding

When you join us as a steward you are welcome to join us for as little as one season, although we find that most people wish to continue as part of the team for many years. We are always happy to take on new stewards although not everyone is asked to steward at all the concerts in a season. You should expect to steward a minimum of 5 concerts in any season.

Stewards’ duties

  •  Checking tickets
  •  Ushering audience members to their seats
  •  Selling programmes
  •  Providing a warm welcome to Music at Oxford concerts

Stewards’ benefits

  •  At most concerts, we provide seating for our stewards inside the concert
  •  We offer our stewards 50% off any ticket for a concert at which they are not stewarding
  •  We offer our stewards 15% off any ticket for their friends or family members

To become a steward please email us with details of any previous stewarding experience and why you would be interested in joining our team: rebecca@musicatoxford.com

Work opportunities

Music at Oxford is a small organisation however we strive to offer opportunities to suitable people. Every year we look for a small team of concert managers and box office assistants. Due to the small number of concerts where we can offer such work, these roles are best suited to those already working in a freelance capacity or students.  People applying to be a concert manager should ideally be music students. Both of these roles are paid per concert.

Concert manager

Responsibilities include:

  • Artist liaison on the concert day
  • Stage set-up
  • Collecting flowers and concert sundries for the concert
  • Setting out chairs
  • Preparing the venue for the evening
  • Liaising with the artist and concert staff during the evening to ensure the smooth running of the concert

Box office assistant

Responsibilities include:

  • Administering tickets at the box office
  • Occasionally selling tickets
  • Directing the public and answering questions regarding the concert

In this role you will work directly with the box office manager.

To apply for either or both of these roles, please email your C.V. and a short covering letter to rebecca@musicatoxford.com
