Salary and Role Alignment

Amber. The advertised salary of £47,389 to £56,535 appears somewhat modest relative to the role's multi-sport strategic responsibility, direct management of head coaches and S&C leadership, scholar recruitment and external partnerships. Under the IUSCA IQF Role Classification & Salary Alignment methodology, this results in an Amber rating. The upper end may be more defensible depending on team size, budgets and delegated decision-making authority.
