Job description
Sports Coach
Location: Salford
Start Date: ASAP
Role: Day-to-day and short-term supply, with potential for longer-term work
Pay: £90-£120 per day, depending on experienceDo you have a background in sport and enjoy working with children and young people? Cover People are looking for Sports Coaches to support schools across Salford, with a range of flexible opportunities available.
These vacancies are primarily for day-to-day and short-term cover, making them well suited to coaches looking for flexibility or wanting to gain experience working in schools. Longer-term placements can also become available where schools require ongoing support.
What Will the Role Involve?No two school days are necessarily the same. Depending on the setting, you may be asked to:
Assist with or lead PE lessons
Run practical sports sessions with pupils
Take small groups for targeted activities
Provide cover for PE lessons
Support lunchtime and after-school sporting activities
Encourage pupils to get involved and try new activities
Help develop teamwork, confidence and positive behaviour
Support pupils who may need additional encouragement to participate
Assist teachers with wider classroom activities when required
You may work with pupils of different ages and abilities, so being adaptable and confident in a school environment is important.

Sports Graduates and PE Graduates
Qualified Sports Coaches
Football, rugby, cricket, basketball or athletics coaches
Fitness professionals
Youth or community sports workers
Candidates with relevant experience working with children
A formal sports qualification is beneficial but isn't essential where you can demonstrate strong coaching experience and an ability to work effectively with young people.
We're looking for someone who is enthusiastic, dependable and confident managing groups, with a genuine interest in helping pupils develop both on and off the sports field.
Working Through Cover PeopleThis is a great option for candidates looking for flexible work in schools without the commitment of a permanent role.
You can expect:
Mainly day-to-day and short-term bookings
Potential for longer-term placements
