Description
Our talented and inspiring workforce are key to our success. Over 50 coaches and volunteers deliver inclusive sport to disabled people across London. We are looking for an equally driven person to manage this incredible team.
You will be recruiting new coaches and volunteers, developing a robust method to upskill and provide continued professional development so our coaches continue to be the best they can be.
You will support coaches to meet our delivery standards, working with them to understand the importance of our systems and processes. You will empower them to feel connected with Disability Sports Coach’s aims and objectives by working collaboratively with the charity’s core staff team.
You will establish communication channels to gather feedback and insights on the impact of our sessions from coaches working on the ground.
A large part of your role is acting as the project lead on our unique Inclusive Activity Leaders (IAL) programme.

Your responsibilities include recruiting the cohort, planning and coordinating all aspects of delivery, providing ongoing support to Leaders, and overseeing project monitoring and evaluation.
This role will sit within a small and inclusive delivery team. We encourage applications from individuals of all backgrounds, who may not meet every qualification but are passionate and bring relevant skills and experience. Positive, team-oriented attitude and a learning mindset is key! If you are excited by the challenge of breaking barriers for disabled people, we want to hear from you.
