Job Description
Description
Rock and Pop Instrumental Music Teacher
Salary: $72,000 - $82,000 pa + Superannuation
Company Bonus Scheme: Discretionary company bonus of up to $3000 per annum
Job Type: Full Time, Permanent role
Location: You'll teach in multiple schools across a regional area each week. The approximate centre point of this region is Roselands but the schools will be in surrounding areas.
This isn’t your average job! As a Rock and Pop Instrumental Music Teacher (we call them ‘Band Leaders’), you will transform school halls into mini festival stages, leading primary-aged kids through weekly band lessons on real instruments. Our Band Leaders keep their evening gigs while building a meaningful, purpose-driven daytime career doing what they love most: making music.
If you've ever wanted a job that genuinely matters, this is it.
About Us
Rocksteady Music School is a leading global provider of in-school rock and pop band lessons. Operating in over 4500 schools and teaching over 125,000 children worldwide, we’ve now launched in NSW and looking to build a team locally to deliver our award-winning lessons.
Our model is designed to do more than teach instrumental skills. Through weekly band lessons, we help students build confidence, resilience, teamwork, and wellbeing. Join us as a band leader and your passion will inspire the next generation.
About the role
As a Rocksteady Band Leader, you’ll spend your days making real music on real instruments, watching students go from nervous first-timers to confident performers in just a few weeks. If you care about doing work that genuinely matters, helping children grow in confidence, teamwork and wellbeing, then this is the job for you. This is a role with real purpose, where your encouragement and energy can change a child’s week (and sometimes much more) through music.
You don’t need a traditional teaching background or a straight-line “music career” to thrive here. Our Band Leaders come from all walks of life - some are gigging musicians, some are self-taught, and some are returning to music after working in a different field. What matters most is that you can play, you care about our mission, and you’re excited to learn. Bring the musical foundation, the right attitude and a genuine drive to make a difference with kids, and we’ll give you the training, resources and support to grow into the role with confidence.
What You'll Be Doing
Teaching groups of primary-age children in a rock and pop band format across in up to 10 schools per week
Giving children their first opportunity to learn an instrument – you’ll be teaching drums, guitar, bass, keyboard and vocals
Working independently as part of a supportive remote team of Band Leaders
Being a rock and pop role-model, empowering children in primary schools to deliver live performances at their end-of-term concerts
Helping kids develop self-belief, resilience, and wellbeing through performing in a band
Representing Rocksteady, building strong, trusting relationships with school staff, teachers, and parents
Be prepared for highly active days and to spend time on the road driving between schools. You’ll need to load and unload your band equipment, set-up and pack away in each location.
What You'll Bring
Competency on at least two of the following instruments: drums, guitar, bass, keyboard, and vocals
The enthusiasm to learn how to teach band lessons and complete our extensive training programme before you start your timetable
Resilience and energy for a role that’s full of greatest moments and biggest challenges – often all in the same day!
The confidence to be yourself at work, be proud of your uniqueness and communicate equally well with children, teachers and parents
The integrity to always promote the safety and well-being of children and young people.
Strong time management and administration skills as an independent, organised worker
A current Australian driver's licence and your own vehicle
Benefits
Full-time permanent position, 38 hours per week, Monday to Friday, daytime only
11+ weeks paid holiday per year
Annual salary plus discretionary company bonus of up to $3,000
Full training in our progressive teaching methodologies
Enhanced maternity and paternity leave
Celebratory staff away-days, regular social events and Christmas celebrations
Opportunities to work with the Rocksteady Foundation, reaching children and young people in charities and support groups across the Australia
