Director, BBC SSO
BBC Scotland is looking to recruit a Director to lead the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra (SSO). Formed in December 1935, the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra is Scotland’s national broadcasting orchestra and performs to large and enthusiastic audiences in venues throughout Scotland. It has been at the heart of the country’s cultural life for many years and has a well-earned reputation for its creative ambition, its pioneering spirit and huge diversity of repertoire. It maintains a busy schedule of broadcasts for BBC Radio 3, BBC Radio Scotland, BBC Television, and Online.
Based at City Halls in Glasgow since 2006, the BBC SSO is Scotland’s leading champion of new music, and has established strong links with local communities through its thriving learning and outreach programme. It is a major partner in Big Noise, Scotland’s innovative project for social change through music, is playing a major role in the BBC’s Ten Pieces initiative, and has a close association with the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, working over a variety of disciplines with conductors, composers, soloists and orchestral players.
