Orchestras Canada (the national association for Canadian orchestras, based in Peterborough, ON) invites applications for a summer job in 2020 for a Researcher.
Deadline for applications is midnight Eastern time, Tuesday, May 26.
The position pays $18/hour, 35 hours/week for 7 weeks, and will start no sooner than June 15.
They seek an individual with experience in research methods to undertake a review of existing research on arts participation (with a particular focus on orchestras) worldwide, with the joint goals of identifying:
1. research useful to Orchestras Canada, as they endeavour to make a strong case for the economic, social, cultural, and educational value that orchestra organizations bring to their communities; and
2. research directly useful to stakeholders in the Canadian orchestral community, to help guide artistic and business decision-making, and strengthen their service to communities.
Post-secondary education (completed or underway) is a requirement, as is a keen interest in social science or market research. Knowledge of classical music is not a requirement. Ability to read and write in more than one language is a distinct asset.
