Job description

Soccer Shots Pittsburgh is hiring reliable, personable, communicative, & engaging coaches to help us pursue our Company Vision Statement: "To positively impact children's lives and to provide a remarkable experience for their families on and off the soccer field through best‑in‑class coaching, communication, and curriculum."

Do you have what it takes to work for Soccer Shots? Please visit the Soccer Shots Pittsburgh website & watch this YouTube Soccer Shots Observation Video to see a session in action!

While soccer experience is a plus, it is not required; most important is that our instructors are comfortable leading & interacting with a group of young children (ages 2-8). Soccer Shots provides detailed curricula with weekly lesson plans & all necessary soccer equipment.

We will only schedule you to work when you are available, but your availability must be consistent each week for the duration of the season. We operate year‑round with winter, spring, summer, fall, & fall 2.0 seasons; each season typically lasts 8 to 11 weeks. Coaches are expected to have reliable personal transportation & to be available & present for their particular time slot(s) all 8‑11 weeks of the season.

Each coach has a unique, personalized schedule; hours worked range from 5‑25 hours per week depending upon availability, location, & ability / performance. While our biggest need is for weeknight & weekend coaches, potential scheduling blocks could (depending upon a person's availability) include:

Scheduling Blocks

• Weekday mornings: between 8:45 AM and 12 PM - dependent upon location
• After‑school hours: 2:30 PM to 4 / 4:30 PM - dependent upon location
• Weeknights: 4:45 PM to 7 / 8 PM - dependent upon location
• Weekend mornings: 8 / 9: 00 AM to 12 / 1:30 PM - dependent upon location

Instructors should also be willing to perform other duties as requested in order to to help drive to our Vision, fulfill our Mission, & abide by our Core Values. Paid, seasonal in‑person staff trainings are required and will be announced in advance.

Our Core Values

• We care
• We own it
• We pursue excellence
• We are stronger together
• We are candid
• We grow

Compensation

Compensation is $18/ 30 to 45‑minute session for Head Coaches & $10/ 30 to 45‑minute session for Alternate Coaches / Coaches‑in‑training. It is typical for coaches to go through an initial, paid training period (as an Alternate Coach / Coach‑in‑training) before being promoted to Head Coach.
