FAQs
All of the people we recruit to deliver our grassroots courses are casually contracted and undertake this work on a part-time basis, usually alongside full-time work.
Courses run during usual working hours, typically 9-5 so you would need to be available for the whole day(s), with the exception of the Welfare Officers Course which runs virtually for 2 hours. Courses will run on both weekdays and weekends so a flexible work approach is required.
Reasonable availability to deliver courses, commitment to course deployment, engagement in own development, experience of in-person and/or online delivery.
Kit to wear during delivery, initial course-specific support, regional and national support and development offer.
Take a look at the images above, all those highlighted in white are open for applications.
Upon application you will apply for the relevant landscape you are interested in i.e. coaching, medical, welfare or talent. From your application we will select the specific role we feel you are best suited to.
Register your details with us here as we would love to reach out and support you so that you are able to apply in the future. We are particularly keen to increase the number of female, black and Asian people in our workforce, therefore if you are from a historically underrepresented group we would particularly love to hear from you.
We have now moved to an open recruitment approach whereby applications can be submitted at any stage. In order to effectively manage this process we will review the applications on a quarterly basis, therefore if you don’t hear from us immediately, please do not worry.
Once we have reviewed your written application, if successful you will be invited to undertake a recorded interview.
We anticipate the initial onboarding process will take 12-weeks. By the end of these 12-weeks you should have received your welcome pack, had an online introduction, and where possible attended the regional or national support and development event for that quarter of the year. From then on you are deployable should we need you to be, but please be aware we allocate workforce to course in advance, therefore it is unlikely you will be delivering courses in immediately after the onboarding process.
We are looking for people who will help positively shape football and drive it forwards. Now that you’ve learned more about what it means to be a part of our casual workforce in FA Education, if you feel your values are aligned to ours, we’d love to hear from you.
You can learn more about the specific requirements of a coach developer, medical tutor, welfare tutor or talent ID tutor – or if you are keen to be involved in the future but don’t feel quite ready, sign up to our talent pool so we can contact you when development opportunities are ready.
We particularly welcome applicants from historically underrepresented groups in the talent pool so that we can provide additional development opportunities for you, to support our aim of diversifying the football workforce.
