Loughborough Sport is seeking an enthusiastic and ambitious full-time Physical Development Coach to join the team. This new hybrid role combines responsibility for maintaining an exceptional training environment with the opportunity to develop as a coach within one of the world’s leading sporting settings.

The successful candidate will support strength and conditioning delivery for student Athletic Union squads, deliver performance testing and reporting services to internal and external clients, and design and lead practical workshops for groups. We are particularly interested in experienced Personal Trainers or fitness professionals who want to broaden their coaching expertise. Previous performance sport experience is not essential, as structured qualifications, standardised training and extensive in-house learning opportunities will be provided.

Alongside coaching delivery, the role remains firmly grounded in the day-to-day operation of the facility. Excellent timekeeping, reliability, customer engagement and pride in maintaining high standards of cleanliness, presentation and equipment care are therefore essential.
