Sports Coach

The Role

Situated on the beautiful Moray Coast in the North of Scotland, Gordonstoun is widely recognised as the world leader in character education.  We have a co-educational community of over 500 students aged from 6-18, who are predominantly full boarding and are drawn from over 40 countries.   

We are looking for a talented Sports Coach who is also keen to play an active role in boarding school life, whether on the sports fields, in the mountains, in the middle of the Moray Firth or in our state-of-the-art Sports Centre.

You will be a creative and inspiring sports coach who is passionate about working with students who are eager to learn and challenge themselves. You will be fully involved in the sports department, providing specialist coaching for students so they can flourish in our broad curriculum. The role will involve managing teams and organising fixtures. We are particularly interested in hearing from coaches with specialisms in hockey, netball, strength and conditioning or swimming. 

Gordonstoun is striving to build a team that is truly inclusive. We welcome applications from marginalised and under-represented groups.
