London, Greater London, United Kingdom LSE Students' Union Full time

This role will be responsible for engaging inactive and hard-to-reach students in physical activity at LSESU through the planning, coordinating and delivery of the recreational sports offer at LSESU.

Who are we?

Part business, part charity, part membership body – students' unions are all seriously fun places to work. They are organisations in their own right. Professionally run, but different. Professional teams support elected student leaders to make change, improve lives and fulfil potential; we help make it happen. Founded in 1897, LSE Students' Union is one of the oldest Students' Unions in the UK and is the representative and campaigning body for students at The London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE). Like other Students' Unions, it also funds and facilitates student activities on campus, including 200+ societies, 40+ sports clubs through the Athletics Union (AU), the Media Group and Raising and Giving (RAG) charitable fundraising initiatives.

What's the job?

This role will be responsible for engaging inactive and hard-to-reach students in physical activity at LSESU through the planning, coordinating and delivery of the recreational sports offer at LSESU.This will involve working closely with the LSE community and departments to engage students and drive participation in physical activity creating a pathway into long term engagement in sport. Marketing, budgets, health and safety, reports and analysis are some of the key aspects that will need to be considered. You will work closely with the Sports and Recreation team and manage a student staff team to deliver the programme.

Who are we looking for?

We are looking for someone with in-depth knowledge and experience working in sport who has successful experience running events and programmes, ideally with young adults or in Higher Education.

An understanding of the role physical activity can play in students' experience and a knowledge of barriers in sport is essential.

The successful candidate will be a highly organised individual who can communicate effectively with a range of diverse audiences. They will be committed, positive, outgoing and approachable with a 'can do' attitude.

Why apply?

Because you're excited by the challenge The exact opposite of corporate, we're progressive, daring and creative individuals working to make a difference in unconventional workplaces. Plus...
