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

• 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.

Despite this, we understand the importance and benefits of face-to-face contact, and enable this in several ways. This includes optional quarterly meetups, weekly all-company video calls, and paid access to coworking space. 

Values

At Bliss, personal values are as important as experience and skills. If you’re not a good fit for our agency, you won’t enjoy your job, and that’s not good for anyone.

Be Good

We look after each other, the planet, and all humankind.
We’re not selfless, but will choose to do the right thing above all else.

Be Open

We are honest and transparent with our colleagues and clients.
We hope to create friendships from work relationships, gaining trust and respect.
