Who we are

Reeltime Music is a creative youth work charity supporting disadvantaged young people through music and the creative industries. We work in partnership to deliver high-quality workshops, projects, volunteering opportunities, and recording and rehearsal services across North Lanarkshire.

The role

As Project Officer, you will work closely with our CEO to coordinate externally funded, organisational-level projects that support Reeltime Music’s strategic ambitions.

In this role, “project” means funded programmes (e.g. Creative Scotland awards, local authority contracts, targeted funder initiatives) rather than short-term blocks of tutor-led workshops. You’ll help turn strategy into delivery, ensuring projects are well-planned, well-evidenced, and aligned with our long-term goals.

Your work will directly contribute to delivering meaningful, high-quality impact for young people and the wider community.

What you’ll do

• Coordinate externally funded projects, ensuring agreed outcomes and outputs are delivered
• Translate strategic plans into clear project plans, schedules, and workflows
• Liaise with funders, partners, tutors, and volunteers to support effective delivery
• Gather monitoring and evaluation data and produce high-quality reports for funders, the CEO, and board
• Track project budgets and support financial reporting
• Uphold safeguarding, equality, and data protection standards across all activity

About you

• Experience coordinating externally funded projects or programmes
• Strong organisational and project management skills
• Confident communicator, able to work closely with senior leaders and external partners
• Comfortable with reporting, monitoring, and evidencing impact
• Aligned with Reeltime Music’s values of respect, collaboration, creativity, and integrity

Why join us?

• Flexible and family-friendly working
• Meaningful work that creates real impact for young people
• Supportive, values-driven organisation
• 32 days leave (pro-rata), including public holidays
• Real Living Wage employer
