Sports Development Officer Opportunities

4 Posts. Initial 1 Year Contract 

Be part of a team which will drive our twin ambitions to increase participation and contribute to increasing the area’s economic prosperity.  We are looking to recruit up to 4 full time Development Officers who are driven, dynamic and committed to make a difference by having a track record in moving work forward at pace, are innovative in approach and demonstrate impact.

This is part of an exciting, yet challenging time as we work towards both a new National Strategy for Sport and our own "Growth Plan for Sport and Physical Activity”, a call for action focused on People, Place and Business to get more people active. Be part of a growing and successful team, which wants to get the hard work done to influence change.

The roles will involve working to make a difference with Schools, Sports Clubs, Colleges and the University, Local Authorities, Community and Commercial organisations, along with National Governing Bodies of Sport, Sport England, Sportscoach Uk and the Youth Sport Trust.  You will take responsibility for managing specific work strands and projects such as Sportivate and Satellite Clubs, whilst meeting the company’s quality and effective service standards needed to realise the changes in sport and physical activity essential to get more people active and demonstrate the economic benefits.

Following an internal review, we are looking to recruit to the following posts:

  • Club Development Officer
  • Schools Development Officer
  • Community Development Officer
  • Special Projects Officer (Graduate)

All posts are full time and initially 1 year contracts. Any extension is subject to performance and future funding. Salary levels will be dependent upon proven experience. 

The successful applicant will be subject to a Disclosure and Barring Service check.
