Part-Time | Paid | Birmingham
About Us:
Kings Heath Sports FC provide grassroots football pathways for children and young people in Birmingham. We're passionate about developing both players and coaches—over the past year, at least five of our coaches have progressed into professional academies, including Aston Villa, Birmingham City (Blues), Wolves, and Coventry FC.
The Role:
We're looking for an enthusiastic and reliable Football Team Coach to join our team. This paid, part-time role involves running training sessions during the week (on a 3G pitch) and, if you wish, managing a team on Sundays for matches (matches are paid as well).
What makes us different?
All training sessions are mapped out in advance with our season-long training syllabus, covering all ages in the club. You don't have to stick to it rigidly—creativity and your own coaching style are encouraged

* Optionally manage your team during Sunday matches (not a requirement; matches are paid as well)

* Maintain high standards of safeguarding, health & safety, and club values
What We Offer:
* Paid part-time coaching role (plus payment for matches if you wish to manage a team on Sundays)

* Clear pathway for career progression—recent coaches have moved to Aston Villa, Blues, Wolves, Coventry FC, and more
* Access to excellent facilities and equipment

* Chance to make a real impact on young players' football journeys
What We're Looking For:
