Sports Development Coordinator-Huddersfield Students' Union

If you haven't experienced working in a students' union you will find it a really stimulating and vibrant place to be, and you will be part of an independent charity whose role is to ensure the 20,000 students at the University of Huddersfield have the best possible experience they can.

As Sports Development Coordinator you will play an important role in supporting and developing both existing student led sports clubs as well new ones. You will work to increase participation across the student population in sport. You will need to be people focused, as building relationships with staff and student committee members is key for this role.

The role is open to both those with experience, who are already working within the area of sports development and to recent graduates. Recent graduates at the start of their career will be given access to training as part of our Graduate Training Programme. The Union is particularly keen to receive applications from individuals who identify as BAME, in order to better reflect the diversity of our student population.

If you still need some convincing, we have an extensive range of excellent job perks which include:

-25 days holiday

-A day off for your birthday

-Time off at Christmas

-An amazing pension scheme

-Be a part of our 'Cycle to Work' scheme
