FGR Community’s vision is to change lives in our local community and use the unique appeal of Forest Green Rovers Football Club to spread aspiration and make a difference to the lives of people within the Stroud district and beyond. Forest Green Rovers is a unique football club, recognised by FIFA as the “world’s greenest football club” securing coverage from around the globe for its environmentally focused ethos.
The candidate/s will join an innovative and developing Community Trust and work closely alongside the football club to deliver community focused initiatives, projects and programmes non-match days, match days and in our popular holiday camps. We are looking for dynamic, energetic, creative, and flexible team members who are prepared to hit the ground running.
Reporting to Project co-ordinators, the successful candidate/s will be responsible for assisting and/or leading high-quality delivery.
As a casual Community Coach, you will be key to the success and growth of the Community Trust, allowing the charity to expand operations and to continue to deliver high quality matchday, school-based and community sessions.
New coaches will be accountable for the welfare of children and vulnerable adults under their responsibility, in line with the Trust’s Safeguarding Children and Vulnerable Adult Policies.
We also expect individuals to embrace equality, diversity, and inclusivity to facilitate a consistent, co-ordinated, and embedded approach to fairness and opportunity across the Trust.
The role may require you to be available on matchdays, which are typically every other Saturday or a weekday evening.
