Queen Margaret’s School for Girls is looking to work with a reliable, enthusiastic,
self-motivated and hard-working coach to deliver private tennis coaching to students
during term time. The suitable candidate will work with a range of players, from beginners
to performance and squad players. Coaching hours can be flexible and work around
current coaching hours at other clubs.
Queen Margaret’s has a strong tradition of tennis and girls receive lessons and group
sessions, often year-round. Girls can sign up for lessons as individuals, in pairs or groups.
There are currently two tennis coaches at Queen Margaret’s who work closely together
to coordinate the coaching programme to cater for the coaching needs of students and
timetable lessons efficiently. It is anticipated that there will be a demand for up to 24
hours of additional coaching during the Summer Term 2025 (22nd June - 4th July). The
number of hours required may vary from term to term depending on student demand.
The coach will work on a self-employed basis. The school will support the promotion of
tennis coaching and will liaise directly with the tennis coaches over demand for lessons
and pupil progress.
We are looking for candidates with:
● LTA Level 3 or 4 Qualified Coach with Accreditation
● Current LTA Registration/Licence
● Proven experience in coaching groups for all levels of groups/individuals
● Proven track record in working with children, possibly in schools and clubs
● You will be a team player, but also able to work on your own initiative
● You must be able to offer sessions from 08:00 - 18:30 according to demand and to
fit in with your other commitments. There is flexibility on days.
To apply, please send your CV in the first instance to recruitment@queenmargarets.com.

application form and provide details of two referees.
