Anyone after a music based full time job?

[MoJoKe]

Basschat is not a recruitment site, but I've cleared this with the mods team, and if it helps get one of our own into work, then all good!

MSL Professional Ltd, UK distribution for Markbass, DV Mark, Softube, SE, Studiologic, JoeCo (and a bunch or others) are recruiting.  The job is advertised on their website for those who would like to work for a company which embraces and encourages their passion and music skills..!

It's a full time and varied role, fundamentally office based (just outside Reading) working with dealers and music shops, sales, marketing, admin and order processing.  You'll need to have some music skills, hopefully an understanding of how studios work and maybe know a bit about music high tech (synths, modular gear, plugins, recording interfaces, midi controllers, etc.), plus you'll get asked to help out at shows and exhibitions in the UK and internationally.

Check it out on the jobs page of their website  https://mslpro.co.uk/

They're an equal opportunities employer - they give jobs to guitarists and bassists.

Worse for you. That stagecoach from Stenny takes a few hrs to get to the civilisation of Falkirk and tarmac roads that lead to South of the border. What will we do when the border checks are put in place and Hadrian's wall is re-instated

I thought you were from Perth @xgsjx for some reason.

I was. I moved to Stenny last year. Having to drive the cattle tracks was costing a fortune on suspension. 😂

You southern mainland Scots lightweights.  When I was a kid in Voe it was a 40+ mile round trip on our bicycles to get to Lerwick, which barely passed for civilisation back then.  And "roads" was a very optimistic term for many of them - many were farm tracks with ideas above their station.  I never even laid eyes on a bus until I was well into my teens.

You were lucky.  We used to dream of owning a bike

[Dan Dare]

A bike? You were lucky. We had one wheel each off a roller skate we found and travelled 50 miles to work on it every day. Kids these days don't know they're born, etc, etc.

Interesting. That's the fastest I've seen a thread go from someone trying to help out people to quoting Monty Python. Must be a record.

Was it 'Always look on the Bright side of Life'?

And you gave all that up and moved South. You just couldnae hack the way of the Islanders.

No, the four Yorkshire businessmen sitting around talking about when they were poor.

Now, does anyone want a job or not?

[SH73]

I'd love the job but I bet the salary and company perks are poor.

Does Basschat give job reference?

OK then, maybe the Lumberjack song would be OK ...?

I could probably make more as a busker, and wouldn't have the commute to worry about.
