Director of Performance Sport

Permanent, Full-Time

We have a fantastic new position at LEH for a Director of Performance Sport. This newly created post offers an exciting opportunity to devise and implement an ambitious strategy for performance sport at LEH, that ensures pupils have the opportunity to compete and succeed at the highest level.

You will take the leading role in developing a new sector leading pupil performance programme for sport at LEH and, working closely with the Director of Sport, develop and implement a plan for sport facilities and resources to support high performance. With experience of competing/coaching at an elite level in one of our school sports (lacrosse, netball, swimming, tennis, cricket or athletics) you will bring an understanding of all aspects of high performance, including the importance sports science, to underpin the work that you do.

The successful candidate will lead and manage the Head Coaches for our school sports, working with the team to promote a culture of ambition and excellence. We welcome applications from those with an established career in sporting excellence, and this would include teachers and those from other professions.

What we offer:

  • LEH is a thriving school situated on a 24-acre site west of London. It has a vibrant and diverse community, and LEH students are renowned for their academic prowess as well as their success across an extraordinarily wide range of co-curricular activities, including sport, music, and drama.
  • We have state-of-the-art facilities, and we encourage staff to make the most of the school's swimming pool, tennis courts, free lunches, on-site parking, and library services.
  • A list of our attractive range of benefits can be found here .

How to apply:

An application pack is available from the School's website. Applications must be made on the School's own form and should be sent to

The closing date is noon on Monday, 10th June 2024.

Applications will be considered upon receipt and interviews can take place at any time. The school reserves the right to close this post at an earlier date should a successful appointment be made.

CVs will not be considered and should not be submitted.

Safeguarding Statement:

All staff working in the School will have some contact with children and will therefore be in regulated activity. Staff with teaching duties will be responsible for the pupils that they teach and may also have additional specific pastoral or other responsibilities for other pupils they do not teach. In addition, all staff will regularly interact with pupils who may seek assistance or otherwise interact with them whilst moving around the School. In all cases, the post holder's responsibility for promoting and safeguarding the welfare of the pupils is to adhere to and ensure compliance with the School's safeguarding policies and procedures at all times.

The post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 and the School is therefore permitted to ask job applicants to declare all convictions and cautions (including those which are "spent" unless they are "protected" under the DBS filtering rules) in order to assess their suitability to work with children.

Lady Eleanor Holles is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people, and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. All applicants must be willing to undergo child protection screening, including checks with past employers and the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS).
