These positions play a key role in delivering a seamless service experience for customers and schools by combining technical expertise with strong collaboration and communication based on Schmitt Music’s core values: Serve Your Customer, Do What’s Right, and Continuous Improvement. For more than 125 years, Schmitt Music has existed for one purpose: to enrich lives by helping people make music. As the Upper Midwest’s premier supplier and service center for school music and beginning band programs, we support thousands of students, educators, and schools each year. At the same time, Schmitt Music is also home to one of the region’s largest selections of intermediate and professional-level instruments. Our Bloomington showroom gives technicians rare, hands-on exposure to some of the finest instruments available—creating learning opportunities that simply don’t exist in most repair environments. Our repair teams are central to this mission. Every instrument that leaves a Schmitt Music bench supports a student’s first note, a program’s success, or a professional musician’s performance. We invest in technicians the same way we invest in music education: for the long term. Band Instrument Repair Technician – Tier 2 (Developing Professional) Grow Your Skills. Expand Your Impact.
