Help Grow School Music Programs Across Ohio

Location: Springfield, OH (schools are across central and southwest Ohio)
Position: Music Education Specialist (Outside Sales)
Territory: Central & Southwest Ohio
Starting Pay: base salary + uncapped commission (between $55,000 - $85,000+/yr)

About Us

For over 70 years, Kincaid’s Music has helped people begin and advance in instrumental music.

We partner with band and orchestra directors to help their students succeed — from first rentals to advanced instruments and repairs.

Our job is straightforward:

Set up musicians for success.

The Role

This role is often called a road rep.

At Kincaid’s, you’re more than that.

You are a trusted partner to music educators — helping their programs grow, their students succeed, and their lives get easier.

This is not a sit-behind-a-desk job.

You’ll spend your time in schools, working directly with directors, students, and parents.

What You’ll Do

- Visit band and orchestra programs across your territory
- Build strong relationships with music educators
- Help run instrument fittings and parent/rental nights
- Guide students into the right instruments
- Support step-up and upgrade conversations
- Coordinate repairs and solve problems quickly
- Maintain and grow existing school partnerships
- Prospect and add new school accounts

When something breaks or goes wrong, you’re the person they call — and you make it right.

What Success Looks Like

A great Music Education Specialist:

- Becomes a trusted partner to music educators




- Helps directors grow their programs
- Ensures students have the right tools to succeed
- Solves problems quickly and professionally
- Communicates clearly and consistently

When this happens, directors stop seeing you as a vendor.

They see you as part of their team.

Who This is For

You’ll do well here if you:

- Have a background in band or orchestra
- Enjoy building relationships and being around people
- Are organized, dependable, and self-driven
- Can manage your own schedule and territory

This role is a strong fit for:

- Music education majors or educators
- Performers who enjoy working with people

If band or orchestra was a meaningful part of your life, this is a chance to stay connected and make an impact.

Why Join Kincaid's?

- Make a real impact on students and music programs
- Work independently with a flexible schedule
- Build long-term relationships in your community
- Be part of a team that truly loves musicians
