Working towards the broad goal of putting on a successful concert, producers truly do it all, from hiring staff to setting up the stage and sound systems and overseeing the load in and load out. The job of Concert and Event Producers requires working knowledge of technical stagecraft, exceptional personnel management skills, and the ability to work well with all the live music industry’s major players.
In most cases, the job begins months before the show, when the concert producer makes contact with the client, artist(s) and their management teams. The producer aims to suss out critical information for the show: additional equipment requirements (like amplifiers, microphones, lights, or instruments); the timetable for the day of the event; and any other pertinent information. The producer puts the plan into action: hiring personnel including stagehands, mix engineers, sound system engineers, and lighting techs; and, if necessary, overseeing the construction of production elements like the stage, sound systems, and lighting plots. Everything needs to be ready for the day of the show, and there’s rarely time to spare.

Do you love music and working with kids?

Requirements and expectations of the job include:
Qualifications and training required:
Although there are no qualifications required across the board for private music tutors, you will need to demonstrate your knowledge of music. In particular, you will need to demonstrate an understanding of – and aptitude for playing – the instrument(s) you will be teaching.
You will also need to show that you can teach and you are good with kids. We prioritize teachers who are “the right fit” for our culture over those who are virtuoso instrumentalists.
Private music teachers are self-employed and work on a contractual basis with our organization. It may take time to build up a client base and become fully established.
Pay Rate and hours and room for growth:
Pay for instructors varies depending on experience and qualifications and ranges between $22-33/hr. Because many people take music lessons as a hobby in their spare time, openings are typically in the evenings and on weekends. It is possible to teach in addition to taking classes or working around other work and gig commitments.
Our community is rapidly expanding. There is room for upward mobility for driven and motivated individuals who wish to make a positive impact on the community through education.
