Educationwise Academy | National – Remote | £30,000 – £34,000 per year | Full Time - 35 hours per week
About Us
At Educationwise Academy, we believe that learning has the power to genuinely change lives. As an Ofsted Outstanding training provider, we work with learners and employers across the country to build skills, confidence and capability that lasts.
From apprenticeships to specialist programmes, everything we do is focused on helping people be the best they can be - and we need brilliant people to help us do that.
About the Role
We are looking for an experienced Sports Coach to join our team as a Tutor/Assessor, supporting apprentices working towards their Sports Coach qualifications.
This is a remote, national role - so you will be comfortable managing your own diary and working independently, while being fully supported by a passionate and experienced team behind you.
If you have a background in sports coaching and a genuine enthusiasm for helping others develop, this could be a really exciting next step for you.
It would be a bonus if you are also able to deliver Level 5 Learning & Skills programmes, but this is not essential - if you meet the core requirements, we would love to hear from you.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Delivering engaging, high-quality coaching and teaching sessions to apprentices
- Supporting learners through their qualifications and apprenticeship standards
- Conducting regular progress reviews with learners and employers, setting clear and achievable targets
- Guiding learners through practical assessments, ensuring all documentation meets awarding body and EPA requirements
- Keeping your own CPD up to date and maintaining your vocational knowledge in the sports coaching sector
- Building strong relationships with learners, employers and colleagues to support the best possible outcomes
What We’re Looking For
Essential:
- Level 3–4 Certificate in Teaching in the Lifelong Learning Sector (CTLLS) or equivalent
- Hands-on experience working in the Sports Coach sector
- Recent experience assessing or teaching adults
- A genuine commitment to helping others grow and develop
- Good ICT skills and the confidence to work remotely
- Evidence of ongoing CPD
- Level 2 Literacy and Numeracy
Desirable (but not essential — please still apply if you meet the above!):
- Level 4 Sports Coach qualification
- Level 5 Diploma in Teaching in the Lifelong Learning Sector (DTLLS)
- An assessor qualification
- Knowledge of regulatory bodies such as Ofsted, CIMSPA and OFQUAL
A Few More Things to Know
- This is a permanent, full-time position working 35 hours per week with some flexibility required
- Some travel may be required for meetings and standardisation activities — a full driving licence and access to your own transport is needed
- Shortlisted candidates will be invited to a Teams interview, which will include a short Micro Teach session relevant to the role
- Successful applicants will be subject to an enhanced DBS check in line with the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974
- Closing date for applications: Friday, 5th June - however, we reserve the right to close the vacancy early if sufficient applications are received, so we'd encourage you to apply as soon as possible.
