Job description

Know golf? Good with people? We'll teach you the rest.

Jon Hodgkinson Golf Fitness is a golf-specific strength and conditioning studio in Dronfield, just south of Sheffield. Our clients are club golfers, mostly in their 50s, 60s and 70s, coached 1-to-1 or in small groups of up to three. They want a coach who understands their game, and that's the part we can't teach.

If you're a golf professional, a PGA trainee or a serious player, your golf knowledge is exactly what we need. We'll train you in our coaching method.

The role

• Coach golfers 1-to-1 and in small groups, using our established method.
• Run assessments and onboarding (full training provided).
• Help clients stay consistent with their training.

What we're looking for

• In-depth knowledge of golf. You play regularly, understand the swing and the game, and can talk golf with experienced club golfers from day one. This is essential.
• Warm, confident and personable, so clients trust you quickly.
• Happy to learn and follow our method.
• Ideally a Level 3 Personal Training qualification, held or close to completion, to coach on your own.
• Coaching experience, or experience with people in their 50s to 70s, is a plus but not essential.

Hours and pay

• Part time and employed: one to two days a week to start, with scope to grow.
• Sessions run 06:30-19:00. Availability for at least two morning or evening blocks a week is preferred, and Saturday mornings are a plus. School-hour patterns are welcome.
• £26,000-£31,000 full-time equivalent, pro rata, depending on experience and skills.

What you get

• Mentorship from Jon Hodgkinson, and a premium studio with a golf simulator.
• Clients who turn up, stick around and want to improve.
• Support with further qualifications beyond Level 3, room to grow and private medical insurance.

Applications close Sunday 15 November.
