Love sport? Great with teens? Looking to take your coaching skills into schools?

This role is ideal if you’ve got experience leading sports sessions—whether in schools, clubs, or community settings—and want to turn that passion into a rewarding, full-time role within education.

You’ll need:

Experience coaching or running physical activity sessions with young people

Confidence leading groups and managing behaviour calmly and positively

A flexible mindset—you might be on the football pitch one day, indoors the next

A genuine interest in helping young people build confidence and resilience through sport

Teaching qualifications aren't essential, but experience in a school or with secondary-age students is a big plus.

What we offer:

A clear route into education-based careers for sports professionals

Competitive pay rates

PAYE – no hidden charges or admin deductions

Ongoing CPD through our MyProgression platform

A supportive, down-to-earth consultant who knows the schools you’ll be working in
