Our client is looking for a dynamic programme leader to orchestrate an exciting new women’s coaching initiative.
This is a rare and exciting opportunity to work in their small ground-breaking charity, in the high profile and fast-moving arena of women’s sport with plenty of scope to make your mark on the cause.
Our client’s charity exists because they believe it is wrong for girls and women to be denied the joy, fulfilment and lifelong benefits of sport. While progress is being made towards greater equality for women and girls in sport, they know that at all levels and across all environments, there are too few female coaches, and women who are in coaching roles often report having a bad experience.
The Women’s Coaching Programme Leader will manage our client’s stewardship of the women’s coaching initiative, a group of organisations and individuals looking to make change for women in coaching. Your role will be to orchestrate, plan, deliver, and monitor the Women’s Coaching Programme on behalf of the collective of organisations involved.
You will have significant experience working within the sporting landscape, ideally spanning community and elite sport. We welcome applicants who can bring something different to the organisation so if you think your experience is relevant, you share our client’s vision and you can bring some fresh ideas, you might be just what they are looking for.
Main responsibilities are:
Lead the Women in Coaching initiative:
-
Own and manage the women in coaching initiative delivery plan
-
Oversee and manage the day-to-day governance processes
-
Build and manage relationships across the sport system to advocate for and ensure the success of the initiative
-
Manage the budget and reporting for the project
What our client is looking for from you:
-
Knowledge of the sports sector
-
Programme management skills learnt either on a job or in life, not just in theory.
-
Excellent relationship management and networking skills
-
Forward thinking and strategic thinking skills
-
Understanding of the headline political, cultural and social determinants of gender equality as this affects women and girls from different backgrounds and cultures.
Our client is committed to a working culture where everyone can be authentic and true to themselves. They strive to represent the full diversity of the communities they serve.
Please see the job description for a full list of responsibilities and the criteria required for this role.
