Job description

Whilst Sport England is a large and vibrant organisation tasked with helping people across England live active lives, you don’t need to be sporty or know the off-side rule. In fact, we are looking for a champion plate-spinner instead - you will have great customer service and organisation skills with an eye for detail and accuracy.

We are seeking an individual with business support skills to provide administrative support to colleagues based in our Place Directorate. The role sits in our Place Collaboration and Learning Team and works with colleagues across the Place Directorate who support sport and physical activity at a local level across England.

You’ll have experience of working in an environment where you have assisted a team, successfully administering the day to day operation and providing meeting and event support (some travel will be required).You are a great communicator, able to prioritise your work and thrive in a collaborative environment.

At Sport England, we want everyone regardless of age, background or level of ability to feel able to engage in sport and physical activity. You can help us do this. You’ll be part of a team that works with organisations in local communities across England to develop sport and physical activity, as well as learning about the location-specific barriers and inequalities people face when trying to get active.

Sport England recognises the positive value of diversity, promotes equality and challenges discrimination. We welcome and encourage job applications from people of all backgrounds, particularly where we are under-represented, currently, this includes disabled people and those from Black, Asian and minority ethnic groups
