Lead Fencing Coach

Organisation: Nottingham Trent University
Salary: £20 per hour
Location: Clifton Campus, Nottingham Trent University
Contract type
Closing date: 22 September 2025
Job Description: Are you ready to help shape the future of student fencing at NTU?

We’re looking for a passionate and organised fencing coach to join our team—working alongside another Lead Coach to plan and deliver an engaging year-round programme for the NTU Fencing Club.

In this role, you’ll co-lead group training, support individual development, and help our student-athletes reach their full potential—whether they’re beginners or BUCS competitors.

You’ll need a Level 2 coaching qualification (or equivalent), experience planning and delivering quality sessions, and confidence in leading others. If you’ve worked in student sport or a performance pathway before, that’s a bonus—but what matters most is your ability to build a positive, inclusive, high-performing environment.

The current coaching schedule listed below is for term time only (September- April) but could be subject to change ahead of the 2025-2026 academic year. This will be discussed at the interview.

Tuesdays 20:00 – 22:00.

This is a flexible zero-hours role, perfect if you’re excited by the idea of developing student sport and working collaboratively to raise standards.

Interviews: week commencing 2nd October 2025.

For more details, please take a look at the role profile. We'll still consider applications even if you don't meet every single one of the requirements, so don't be put off if you don't match them perfectly.
