Program Coordinator

Soccer Shots New Orleans

Full-Time | $36,000+ salary | PTO + Benefits | Paid Saturdays | Gas Reimbursement | Generous Holiday Schedule (including 5 paid days for Mardi Gras!)

At Soccer Shots New Orleans, we’re on a mission to positively impact children’s lives through the game of soccer. We bring high‑energy, age‑appropriate sessions to parks, preschools, and elementary schools across the Greater New Orleans area. Our team is passionate, fun‑loving, and dedicated to making a difference — both on and off the field.

We’re looking for a Program Coordinator who’s part operations superstar, part kid‑whisperer, and 100% committed to our mission. If you can seamlessly switch from answering a parent’s email, to setting up a season online, to coaching a field full of giggling 4‑year‑olds — this is your perfect match.

What You’ll Do

• Serve as the first point of contact for parents — respond to emails, texts, and calls with professionalism and warmth.
• Communicate regularly with school and community partners to confirm seasons and strengthen relationships.
• Manage scheduling: set up seasons on NBC SportsEngine, handle make‑ups and cancellations, and ensure our coaches are where they need to be.
• Oversee operational details like invoices, registrations, and attendance tracking.
• Coach Soccer Shots sessions during the week (and occasional Saturday mornings — paid in addition to salary).
• Represent Soccer Shots with energy and enthusiasm, building trust with parents, children, and partners.

What You Bring

• Energy & Enthusiasm: You light up a room (or a soccer field) and love engaging with young children.
• Organizational Skills: You can manage multiple tasks, details, and deadlines without breaking a sweat.
• Communication Skills: You’re friendly, professional, and clear — whether speaking to a parent, school director, or 3‑year‑old.
• Flexibility: Comfortable splitting time between the office, the field, and occasional evening/Saturday commitments.
• Tech Savvy: Proficient with email, spreadsheets, and online tools (we’ll train you on NBC SportsEngine).
• A valid driver’s license, reliable transportation, and the ability to pass a background check.
• Bonus points for experience in youth sports, coaching, teaching, or customer service.

What We Offer

• Starting salary of $36,000+ (depending on experience)
• Generous PTO including over 20 paid holidays — and multiple days off for Mardi Gras!
• Gas reimbursement for work travel.
• 401(k).
• Paid professional development and training.
• Supportive, fun‑loving team culture that values growth, impact, and high‑fives.
