World Class Programme Operations and Logistics Co-ordinator

  • Position: Full-time
  • Location: Primarily office-based at Abbey Park, Stareton, with some home-based working
  • Salary range: £28,000–£32,000 plus medical cover and generous pension scheme

We're looking for a Operations and Logistics Co-ordinator to provide administrative support for the overall operations of our UK Sport and National Lottery-funded World Class Programme. The role includes working alongside World Class Programme staff and consultants to assist with the planning and execution of squad training sessions and attendance at international competitions, major events and championships. The successful candidate will also support on anti-doping education and relationships with partners and suppliers, act as the lead on all team kit matters and provide administrative support to World Class Programme working groups and functional group areas. 

This role will include out-of-hours working and, at times, long days and weeks, as is the nature of elite sport. It will also involve travel within the UK and possibly overseas, so a willingness to work long and irregular hours, particularly in the summer months, and travel both within the UK and overseas with overnight stays and weekend work, is therefore essential.

This is an incredibly rewarding role for the right candidate.
