Contract: Permanent
Salary: £29,000 to £39,000 depending on experience

This is an exciting opportunity for a passionate rowing coach, to join the senior squad coaching team alongside providing important administration support to the Head of Rowing.

In January 2016, the school opened its very own Boathouse, the first and only all-female boat club along the river Thames. The Boat Club provides a state-of-the-art training facility which continues to develop our athletes. Part of the Girls’ Day School Trust group of schools, Putney High School is one of the UK’s leading schools and has earned a reputation for excellence in sport across the school.

The senior squad is growing in size and has athletes with a wide range of abilities including potential GB Junior standard. The ideal candidate will have previous experience of coaching medal standard crews at national events such as the National Schools Regatta and will have experience themselves as an athlete who has reached a very good national standard.
