Vacant job

Choir Director sought for Autumn 2026 for a Musical Choir in Karlstad.

About the position:

Hello!

We are looking for a cheerful and engaged choir director for a Musical Choir in Karlstad.

The choir is open to everyone, with no auditions required, and is aimed at adults who want to sing and share their interest with others.

Songs are already prepared with parts, recordings, lyrics, sheet music, etc., allowing you to focus solely on taking care of the members on-site without worrying about preparations.

Who are you?

You love working with people and are driven to help individuals dare more and believe in themselves. You believe that singing can be a path to well-being and are happy to support people where they are in their vocal development. You believe in the power of choral singing and its ability to bring people together.

We believe you always arrive with a smile and know that when you take on the students, this might be their best moment of the entire week. We believe you understand the importance of not getting stuck on individual parts but instead letting the joy of singing flow in the room.

You have a qualification as a vocal pedagogue or equivalent.

Who are we?

For 10 years, VocalLife has led various types of singing activities, primarily in Lund but also in cities across Sweden, such as Malmö, Jönköping, Örebro, Norrköping, Helsingborg, and more. We love uniting people through song.

We know that when people sing together, we create a better and healthier society that benefits both the singer and those around them.

Furthermore, in an increasingly digital world, places that unite people are among the most important things that exist.

We love helping people grow through the community of song.

Compensation and future:

We prefer that you have your own company and can invoice us, but we can also create a temporary position based on hourly rates if that suits you better.

If you wish to lead several choirs in your local area, this can also be an opportunity.

We prefer a long-term collaboration. Therefore, we want to create the possibility for you, if you wish, to change our agreement to a permanent position in the future, adding vocal lessons, vocal ensembles, group singing, etc., in your local area if it is of interest. This is something we will discuss based on your wishes and our possibilities, and together we will see what solutions we can find.

The position is currently a few hours per week. We prefer that you have another job alongside this as your primary source of income.

Contact us if you are interested or have questions. Send your CV and cover letter to [email protected] and mark the email with "KARLSTAD Choir Director".

Looking forward to hearing from you!

NB: We are hiring continuously and may fill the position before the application deadline.

Best regards,

Ellen Sörensen, CEO
