Performance Coach - Football

We are seeking a Performance Coach – Football to support the School’s football programme on a part-time, fixed-term basis from September 2026 to March 2027. Football is a key focus area, and this role will contribute to both participation and performance pathways, working with pupils across a range of ages and abilities. The role involves delivering structured, engaging coaching sessions and supporting performance squads, including A teams, within a coordinated programme. You will assist with fixtures during the week and on Saturdays, contribute to player development pathways, and support Individual Development Plans where appropriate. The position also requires close collaboration with colleagues to ensure a consistent approach across the programme. Applicants must hold a minimum FA/UEFA B Licence (or equivalent) and have experience coaching young players. You should be organised and able to communicate effectively, maintaining a professional and positive approach at all times. Experience in performance or pathway football programmes, or within a school environment, would be advantageous but is not essential. This is a part time role working 20 hours per week during term time, typically across Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday afternoons. Closing date: Thursday 21 May at 10am We reserve the right to interview and appoint before the closing date, therefore early applications are encouraged. Tonbridge School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, and applicants must be willing to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers and the Disclosure and Barring Service.
