The importance of providing an insightful, impassioned and consistent perspective for young people is a position which commands great responsibility. I have enjoyed educating, coaching and inspiring young people in various different positions/roles.
Having a thorough and methodical approach to strategy and operations provides those around me the opportunity to flourish in their respective roles. I possess the relative experience and skillsets complemented with enthusiastic and energetic leadership. My excellent communication and relationship building skills mean I am often a popular contributor within any organisation.
I have huge experience working alongside Sporting Directors to deliver comprehensive programmes of athletic development whilst also supporting both major sports and those individuals talented in less significant sports. The ability to facilitate young people’s sporting experiences is a privilege and the positive experiences I have had serve to fuel my ambition further.
Working in different schools in the UK and overseas, my own sports experiences, coupled with being a father to two gifted young sports participants provides me with a comprehensive appreciation of the nuances of School Sport. My experiences have helped me develop a flexible approach in dynamic environments aided by my confident decision making.
The provision of sport and activities within schools is intrinsic to the fabric of any school, often commanding significant marketing opportunities. The social interaction, inclusion and comradery that physical activity offers young people should be a cornerstone of childhood and adolescence. Learning and mastering sports skills and providing healthy competition complement an ambitious and well delivered academic framework.
Changes observable in the everyday life of young people mean that sport and activity now provides a unique and valuable wellbeing opportunity.
I am seeking a Director of Sport position as I feel I have both the relevant experiences and qualities to excel and I genuinely relish the opportunity to make a significant impact.
