Job Details Required from late August 2025 until early July 2026 Resident Graduate Sports Assistant At Roedean, we are dedicated to providing a world-class education that inspires and empowers girls aged 11-18 to achieve their full potential. Our stunning cliff-top location overlooking the sea, combined with our rich heritage and commitment to academic excellence, makes Roedean a truly unique and inspiring place to learn and work. We are proud of our inclusive and supportive community where every student is encouraged to pursue their passions and develop the skills they need for future success. This is a one year post that would be suitable for a person wanting to gain experience in an independent boarding school. It is a residential post and the postholder would be provided with shared accommodation in the school, and would work within a boarding house and the Sports Department. The successful candidate would be keen to immerse themselves in the life of the school community, gaining experience in the Sports department. This is an exciting opportunity for someone with a background in playing, studying or coaching sports to gain more experience in coaching and teaching PE and Sports in a school environment, and also supporting the School’s vast co-curricular programme as well as the boarding community. Our stunning cliff-top location, between the English Channel and the South Downs, provides a wonderful location to play sport, but it also encourages the students to widen their horizons and aim high. The School’s founding ethos remains as strong today as it was in 1885, and this rich heritage permeates many aspects of school life. In sport, our key sports of Hockey, Netball and Cricket are complemented by strength in other areas, such as Swimming and Athletics. Roedean is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Applicants will be required to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers and the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS). The post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974. The School is therefore permitted to ask job applicants to declare all convictions and cautions on a self-declaration form in advance of attending an interview (including those which are "spent" unless they are "protected" under the DBS filtering rules) in order to assess their suitability to work with children. Please download an application pack from our website (www.roedean.co.uk/Vacancies) or contact Louisa Butler via vacanciesroedean.co.uk. Please note we do not accept CVs. Closing date: 17 March 2025. Due to the need to appoint quickly we reserve the right to interview and appoint at any time.
