Job description

The purpose of this position is to spread the message of the restored Church of Jesus Christ around the world through music. Many Church messages are delivered as music via print, web, app/mobile, social media, streaming, and other delivery channels in 100+ languages. 

This role is a part of the Publishing Services Department (PSD) of the Church. The material produced, managed, and published by the music publishing team encompasses all music content for the Church. Core projects include: the new Hymns collection, Youth Theme music, Magazine music, Temple dedication arrangements, and others. In addition to providing engraved sheet music, the music publishing team helps curate online databases for Church music libraries, and assist with archival and restoration activities.

This internship role would assist in transitioning language files from Finale to Dorico. While this role may not be writing or engraving original music or participating in audio recordings, this role requires critical engraving problem solving skills to ensure the sheet music is properly preserved during this transition of systems. The ideal candidate has previous engraving experience, high music literacy, understanding of vocal and instrumental styles of music, knowledge of music styles in print and performance globally, and a flexible, creative mind that is willing to collaborate and meet challenges head-on. 

This role is based in Salt Lake City, Utah and will be a hybrid work schedule with some in office days required.

Church employees find joy and satisfaction in using their unique talents and abilities to further the Lord's work. From the IT professional who develops an app that sends the gospel message worldwide, to the facilities manager who maintains our buildings- giving Church members places to worship, teach, learn, and receive sacred ordinances-our employees seek innovative ways to share the gospel of Jesus Christ with the world. They are literally working in His kingdom.
Only members of the Church who are worthy of a temple recommend qualify for employment. Apart from this, the Church is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate in its employment decisions on any basis that would violate U.S. or local law.
Qualified applicants will be considered for employment without regard to race, national origin, color, gender, pregnancy, marital status, age, disability, genetic information, veteran status, or other legally protected categories that apply to the Church. The Church will make reasonable accommodations for qualified individuals with known disabilities.

  • Basic understanding of publishing music in foreign languages and how they relate to the rhythm and meter of the music composition
  • Ability to effectively use Microsoft suite, awareness of database software and organization; ability to write clearly and well in English
  • Willingness to be part of a highly collaborative team while able to operate independently in shepherding individual responsibilities

  • 80% Design and maintain sheet music assets for the Church in all approved languages; Finale is being actively depreciated, and the team needs to migrate the active library to a new software Dorico. A lot of time will center on this migration activity while still developing the new Hymns collection in many language.
  • 15% Understand and deal with the complexities of the Church music publishing process, including the requirements for multi-channel music language production. Follow the established music publishing process for multi-channel publishing of music content.
