City St George's Students' Union is seeking an enthusiastic and experienced Women's Hockey Coach to lead and develop our Women's Hockey Club during the 2026/27 academic year.

The successful candidate will work closely with the student committee, team captain, and Students' Union staff to deliver high-quality coaching that supports both individual player development and team performance.

The coach will play a key role in developing the Women's Hockey Club and supporting the team to compete effectively within BUCS competition.

The role includes planning and delivering structured training sessions, developing players' technical and tactical understanding, supporting player progression, and fostering a positive, inclusive, and performance-driven team culture.

The coach will also be expected to assist with squad management, match preparation, and performance review where appropriate.

Applicants must hold a minimum Level 1 recognised hockey coaching qualification and have experience coaching players of varying abilities within a club, community, university, or performance environment.

The ability to motivate student-athletes, communicate effectively, and create an engaging learning environment is essential.

The Women's Hockey Club currently competes in BUCS competition. Matches typically take place on Wednesdays. The coach may be invited to attend fixtures; however, attendance and payment for match-day support will be agreed separately on a pre-arranged ad-hoc basis.

The coach will be expected to uphold the Students' Union's values, promote participant welfare and inclusion, and deliver all activity in accordance with relevant health and safety, safeguarding, and governing body requirements.
