Student Placement Opportunity for a Strength & Conditioning Coach at Surrey Sports Park, supporting the Lead S&C Coach with session planning, delivery, and relevant administration across Team Surrey, TASS and Dual Career athletes.

You will also work synchronously with other members of the performance team to effectively manage athletes’ physical development and loading.

Surrey Sports Park is at the heart of sport and physical activity in Surrey, and our mission is to deliver the best possible sport, health, and wellbeing experience to our University of Surrey students and to the wider SSP community.

We provide strategic added value to the University by delivering an outstanding student experience through social and competitive sport and providing an excellent environment for wellness and fitness for Surrey staff and students, and our community impact is significant both culturally and physically.

The team is passionate and high performing, and the business model requires us to deliver a self-sustaining, well managed and customer service focused business.

The Role:

The student S&C Coach will be responsible for managing their own athlete caseload, under direct supervision.

Training and development, plus formal mentorship opportunities will also be provided to support university assignments and career progression.

Placement students are expected to be flexible, with considerable work in late evenings and early mornings during athletic seasons.

The student will work closely with other sports therapists, S&C coaches, sharing the assessment, programmes, and rehabilitation of athletes during a training week.

The student coach will be expected to liaise with the whole MDT to discuss progress and advise on playing and/or training time.

The student will have autonomy; however, should consult with the Lead S&C Coach before finalising any decisions regarding exercises, management, and/or loading strategies.

The role will involve developing coaching style, administrative and communication skills that are required in the field of S&C.

This will include using technology, platforms and apps that are used on a day to day basis for athlete and data management.

The ability to think critically about coaching problems and immersing yourself in practical coaching experiences will be fundamental to this role.

The student will be forward thinking and encouraged to express ideas on how to develop and improve the delivery of S&C across the Sports Park.

This will include attending weekly performance team meetings to share knowledge, review exercises, report on injuries, and discuss on-going issues that will improve the working relationship within the performance team.
