Sport Careers - Sport Development Officer

Sports development officers help schools and communities get more actively involved in sport by organising projects and initiatives.

Help schools and communities get more actively involved in sport by organising projects and initiatives Sports Development Officers ensure that everybody has the chance to take part in sport by making sure that all sections of the community are aware of available activities and where they can go to get involved.

Part of this will involve organising sport-related projects, classes, programmes, coaching, club development and training ranging from leisure to professional levels.

The central aim is to increase participation in sport of all kinds, but you will also address issues of health, crime and social inclusion as well, often working with organisations such as:

  • charities
  • the NHS
  • regeneration initiative
  • schools
  • sport national governing bodies (NGBs).

One Message, Different Voices

Take a look at this powerful film made by the staff of Weston College to show how important it is for everyone from different backgrounds to be included. The film shares heartfelt stories and interviews with a diverse group of staff, showing how accepting different identities and backgrounds can make a big difference. Its purpose is to encourage viewers to think about their own biases and work towards making our community more welcoming to all. We invite everyone, regardless of their background, to join us and be a part of our journey toward a more inclusive future.

Our workplace champions the right of staff to embrace all Afro-hairstyles. We acknowledge that Afro-textured hair is an important part of our Black employees’ racial, ethnic, cultural, and religious identities, and requires specific styling for hair health and maintenance. We celebrate Afro-textured hair worn in all styles including, but not limited to, afros, locs, twists, braids, cornrows, fades, hair straightened through the application of heat or chemicals, weaves, wigs, headscarves, and wraps. In this workplace, we recognise and celebrate our colleagues’ identities. We are a community built on an ethos of equality and respect where hair texture and style have no bearing on an employee's ability to succeed.
