Job Introduction

Are you passionate about increasing participation in sport and physical activity? Do you have the drive to develop innovative programmes that improve health and wellbeing while supporting the growth of leisure services?

Medway Council is seeking an enthusiastic and motivated Sports Development Officer to join our Sport Development Team. This is an exciting opportunity to play a key role in delivering high-quality, inclusive sporting opportunities that help residents become more active and engaged in their communities.

Working alongside a wide range of partners, community organisations, sports clubs, National Governing Bodies and internal teams, you will lead the development and delivery of programmes and projects that increase participation, maximise the use of our sports facilities, and contribute to the financial sustainability of Medway's leisure services.

We are looking for a proactive and innovative individual with experience in sports development, working with an NGB, school sport delivery and community engagement programmes.

If you are passionate about helping people become more active and want to make a real difference in Medway, we'd love to hear from you.

Apply today and help us create more opportunities for everyone to enjoy sport and physical activity.

The successful post holder will be subject to an Enhanced DBS check.

If you would like to have an informal discussion with the recruiting manager, please call Tina Spry on 01634 338764.

Career Progression Frameworks (CPF) have been introduced for all roles at Medway Council. These frameworks provide a mechanism for employees to take ownership of their development within their post and be rewarded accordingly. The salary you will be offered will be at level A. There will be further opportunity once in post to progress from level A to B, and B to C.

When writing your application, it is important to ensure you identify your suitability against the requirements of the job profile, as this information will be used for shortlisting and may contribute to the CPF assessment. Your application may be rejected if the minimum required criteria is not met. Further information relating to the requirements for this role can be found in the CPF Guidance document attached.

The person specification of a job profile is split into three levels:

Level A details the essential criteria that all applicants must be able to demonstrate through their application and interview.

Level B details the developed competencies that an individual who is practised in this role would be able to demonstrate and will be a progression of knowledge, experience and skills from level A.

Level C requires the highest level of competence and applicants would need to fully meet and demonstrate all aspects of the job profile, including qualifications, knowledge, skills and experience.

We are seeking a Sports Development Officer to join the team at level A. This is the entry point of the role, so you will need to be able to demonstrate the relevant knowledge, experience and skills to get you started, but you will be supported to develop in your role through induction, probation and a supportive Performance Appraisal and Career Conversation. All elements of level A listed within the person specification are essential. Through your induction you will be introduced to the Career Progression Framework (CPF), which will help you to identify your areas of strength and any development needs.

Important Information-

Applicants must be able to demonstrate all criteria at level A which are essential for appointment to the role.

Medway Council is not able to provide a Certificate of Sponsorship, so candidates must already possess the right to work in the UK.

For further information, and for details of the benefits of working for Medway Council, please refer to the Medway information pack available as a download or to view online.

Please be advised that if you are not contacted within 3 weeks of the advert closing date then you have not been shortlisted. All recruitment correspondence, including interview letters and contracts of employment will usually be sent out via email.

Please note, we prioritise applications from current Medway Council redeployees. We will let you know if this post is to be filled by a redeployee as, in this instance, your application will unfortunately not be taken forward.
We reserve the right to close this vacancy at any time prior to the closing date.
