Performance Sport Coordinator

Closing date: 16 August 2026
Location: Mile End
Region: London
Employment type: Part Time
Salary: £19,957 per annum (60% pro rata to £33,263 per annum)

We are looking for an experienced sport professional to coordinate our Performance Sport programmes and act as a Dual Career Coordinator (DCC) within the TASS network.

This part-time post (0.6 FTE / 21 hours per week) covers two flagship programmes: the Talented Athlete Programme (TAP), which supports elite student-athletes with a comprehensive package including strength and conditioning, sports therapy, academic flexibility, and dual career support; and the Focus Team Programme, which supports six high-performance clubs with clear BUCS competitive ambitions.

You will act as the primary point of contact for athletes and coaches across both programmes, building strong relationships with university partners, NGBs, and external providers. As a DCC, you will provide structured 1-to-1 support to TAP athletes to help them balance elite sport with full-time study, working within the TASS framework.

There is also the opportunity to undertake additional paid strength and conditioning delivery hours during term time. You will need experience working within a performance or elite sport environment, with proven ability to provide 1-to-1 athlete support and a strong understanding of dual career principles.

A recognised S&C or coaching qualification is desirable. Strong organisational and relationship management skills and a genuine commitment to student-athlete welfare are essential, alongside experience of working in higher education or a student-led environment.
