Who are UK Sport?
We are the UK’s trusted high-performance experts, powering our greatest athletes, teams, sports and events to achieve positive success. Investing a combination of National Lottery and Government funds, we support our Olympic and Paralympic sports to realise their world-leading potential, and we are the government’s lead technical agency for major events in the UK. We work closely with our sporting, national and regional partners to ensure that the UK successfully bids for and stages some of the world’s biggest international sporting events. Our purpose is to lead high-performance sport to enable extraordinary moments that enrich lives.
We are on a mission – to create the greatest decade of extraordinary sporting moments; reaching, inspiring and uniting the nation. That mission is underpinned by three ambitions for UK high-performance sport; to keep winning and win well, to grow a thriving sporting system and to harness those to inspire positive change. Working with the sports and events we fund, DCMS, and our partner organisations across the UK high-performance system, we are building on 25 years of ever-growing success to write the UK’s next chapter for Olympic and Paralympic sport.
About the Role
We’re looking for a Head of Learning and Development to shape the future of people development across the UK high-performance system.
This is a pivotal leadership role. You’ll set the strategic direction and deliver world-class learning and development – from coaching and leadership to practitioner growth. Your work will create a culture of continuous learning, ensuring our system is ready for today and prepared for tomorrow.
You’ll lead a talented team covering Coaching, Leadership and Performance Supervision, driving plans that are fit for purpose and future-focused. Working closely with other Heads of and Directors, you’ll champion collaboration, align priorities with our Annual Operating Plan, and evolve strategies that keep GB winning – and winning well.
Key to your success will be:
• Driving impact: Design and deliver a people development offer that adds real value and maximises return on investment.
• Building networks: Foster peer-to-peer learning and high standards across the system.
• Leading partnerships: Manage key performance learning partners and track impact.
• Shaping the future: Develop system-wide strategies that leave a lasting legacy beyond LA.
If you’re ready to lead, inspire and make a difference at the heart of UK Sport’s ambitions, this is your opportunity.
