About the Role
These roles are to form part of the coaching delivery team for the Men’s Football program at Nottingham Trent University, one of the top ranked university football programs in the country.
There are two roles being recruited into, one to lead on the delivery of all training and matchday provision for our Men's 2nd Team who play in Tier 2 of BUCS, with the other being an equivalent role with our Men's 3rd Team who play in Tier 3. Additionally, you will be instrumental in the selection and retention of talented student athletes, both from within the UK and internationally, along with continuing to develop the thriving and successful performance culture at the heart of the club.
With a strong history of delivering coaching to high quality players, you will be instrumental in ensuring that Nottingham Trent University continues to be one of the premier institutions for any student wanting to combine high level football with a high quality education.
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.
Proposed interview date: W/c 20th October 2025.
