Activity Professional

Description

As an Activity Professional, you’ll play a vital role in supporting the physical, emotional, and social development of children aged 4 to 11 through a variety of engaging activities across breakfast clubs, after-school sessions, holiday courses, wraparound care and extracurricular clubs. Whether you're providing an energising start to the day, leading a weekly tennis club, or creating a supportive environment where children can grow in confidence over time, you’ll be helping shape positive childhood experiences that last a lifetime.
More than just delivering sessions, you’ll create meaningful opportunities for children to build resilience, form friendships, and develop a lifelong love for movement and activity. This role is ideal for passionate coaches of any sport or activity who are driven by the desire to make a difference.
You’ll be committed to providing a safe, inclusive, and enriching environment, always upholding the highest safeguarding standards to ensure the wellbeing of every child in your care. Every session is a chance to inspire, uplift, and contribute to a child’s journey - not just for today, but for their future.
