About Us

St John’s Uniting Church Essendon seeks an Organist who is in sympathy with the best modern and traditional styles of church music to play our Peter Nicholls Memorial Organ, and our new Yamaha mid-sized Concert Grand Piano.

Worship on Sunday normally at 9.30am, with a small choral group, and occasional additional services including Weddings and funerals. Working closely with the Minister, and the Worship Committee, within the ethos of the Uniting Church, is important. The organ is comprehensive 1967 Fincham rebuild (2 manuals and pedals, 27 speaking stops inc several ranks of mixtures and reeds) of the 1927 original. Renumeration at OMSV rates.
