The Opportunity

British Gymnastics is looking for two Coach Developers, one permanent and one temporary, to play a key role in supporting coaches across community and pathway gymnastics environments. Working regionally, you will help coaches develop their practice beyond formal education programmes through meaningful relationships, personalised support, collaborative learning opportunities and insight driven development activities.

As a Coach Developer, you will work closely with coaches, clubs, partners and colleagues to build coaching capability, strengthen coaching communities and embed a culture of continuous learning. You will contribute to the delivery of British Gymnastics' coach development strategy, ensuring coaches receive high quality support that enables them to achieve their personal and professional goals while helping athletes reach their potential.

Main responsibilities

The main responsibilities of the role are:

  • Provide individual coach support through observation, reflection, feedback and development planning in both community and pathway environments.
  • Build trusted relationships with coaches, clubs and key stakeholders to understand local needs and identify development opportunities.
  • Facilitate learning communities, workshops and coach development activities that encourage collaboration, shared learning and problem solving.
  • Deliver coach education courses and support the effective delivery of learning and development programmes across the region.
  • Work with colleagues across Learning and Development, Performance Pathways, Community and Safe Sport functions to embed learning into practice.
  • Gather and analyse insight from coaches and clubs to inform future products, services and support interventions.
  • Support the quality assurance, development and ongoing engagement of tutors, assessors and other learning delivery personnel.
  • Promote a positive coaching culture by recognising, celebrating and sharing effective coaching practice across the gymnastics community.
  • Contribute to projects, initiatives and programmes that develop coaching standards, coach licensing and workforce development.
  • Champion inclusive practice, safeguarding, wellbeing and British Gymnastics values in all aspects of your work
