Sport & Physical Activity Officer – University of Wolverhampton – England

Job Description
We are recruiting for a Sport and Physical Activity Officer to join the newly formed Sport and Physical Activity Team within WLV Sport.
This is an exciting time to join the team and the university as we have a new strategy of ‘More People, More Active’ and are building a framework to achieve it.
With a focus on active wellbeing, participation and physical activity, you will design, implement and deliver engaging and inclusive activities to students, staff and the local community. Furthermore, you will recognise the impact that local and national initiatives and governing bodies have on participation with the ability to engage with widening participation projects from written applications through to project delivery and evaluation. Having the passion to engage and inspire people to become physically active is a must.
We are committed to making our offer as inclusive and accessible as possible and are looking for someone with creative ideas to enable us to achieve this. Having an understanding of the challenges people, in particular students, face in becoming physically active would be advantageous.
In return, you will get to work in a flexible, friendly and supportive environment. We are keen to develop our staff through continued professional development and would provide opportunities to expand your knowledge and skillset within other areas of the department as requested.
