We are looking for a part-time Instructor to work for ComputerXplorers.
Must have a driving licence and their own car or van.
Areas of work will be around Berkshire, Surrey and London.
Join our team to inspire the young and old to keep fit and healthy in HADO, a revolutionary sports experience. HADO is the world’s first augmented reality technosport, where “Dodgeball meets Marvel!”
As a sports instructor, you'll help people participating in sports to work towards achieving their full potential and improving their performance. You could work with a variety of people at different levels, ranging from school or community teams to professional teams and individuals who may be competing at a national or international level. You may also have a role in encouraging underrepresented groups or young and older people to participate in sporting activities.
You'll aim to improve sporting ability by identifying needs and planning and implementing suitable training programmes. Whatever the context and level, coaching involves developing the participants' physical and psychological fitness and providing the best practical conditions in order to maximise their performance.
Depending on the level you're working at, you may need to combine coaching with another job to supplement your income. Some coaching roles, particularly at school or community level are voluntary and part time.
Responsibilities
Activities vary depending on the context of your role but in general, within performance management, you'll need to:
* evaluate performance and provide suitable feedback, balancing criticism with positivity and motivation
* assess strengths and weaknesses in a participant's performance and identify areas for further development
* adapt to the needs and interests of group or individual participants
* communicate instructions and commands using clear, simple language
* demonstrate an activity by breaking the task down into a sequence
* encourage participants to gain and develop skills, knowledge and techniques
* ensure that participants train and perform to a high standard of health and safety at all times
* inspire confidence and self-belief
* develop knowledge and understanding of fitness, injury, sports psychology, nutrition and sports science
* work with IT-based resources to monitor and measure performance
* act as a role model, gaining the respect and trust of the people you work with
* liaise with other partners in performance management, such as physiotherapists, doctors and nutritionists
* work to a high legal and ethical standard at all times, particularly in relation to issues such as child safeguarding and health and safety requirements.
Within planning and administration, you'll need to:
* produce personalised training programmes
* maintain records of participant performance
* coordinate participants' attendance at meetings and other sports events
* plan and run programmes of activities for groups and individuals
Salary
* Hourly rates start at around £13.
Working hours
Many posts include early morning, evening or weekend work. Work may also be seasonal for some sports and hours may increase in the run up to major competitions and events. Part-time contracting work.
What to expect
* Coaching work can be carried out in different environments including schools and universities, gyms and leisure centres and playing fields. You may be outside in adverse weather conditions.
* It's likely you'll need to work unsocial hours.
* Frequent travel to reach facilities or to attend competitions, often involving considerable distances, may be necessary.
* Absence from home overnight and travel throughout the UK and abroad may be necessary, depending on the sport and the level at which you're involved.
Qualifications
Minimum:
* Level 2 Certificate in Coaching or Level 2 Certificate in Sports and Exercise Sciences
Skills
You'll need to show:
* the ability to quickly develop successful working relationships with people from different backgrounds and with varying levels of sporting ability
* a desire to help other people succeed
* excellent communication and interpersonal skills
* team building ability and leadership skills
* enthusiasm, flexibility and patience
* awareness of equality, diversity and inclusion issues, including those related to sport and disability
* motivational skills and an understanding of the psychology that underpins successful competition, particularly at senior coaching levels
* organisational skills
* a strong interest in maintaining professional skills and knowledge.
The role requires the ability and enthusiasm to work with large groups of children. An Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check is required for this area of work.
