The University of Manchester has over 16,000 students and staff taking part in organised sport and physical activity through the University. The University recognises the importance of an active lifestyle in both the experiences that these opportunities provide our audiences as well as the positive impact that they have on their wellbeing. Delivery of our sport and physical activity strategy is through UoM Sport which is based across our campuses primarily in Fallowfield at the Armitage Sports Centre and in Manchester University Students’ Union on Oxford Road.

Our activities take place across the city utilising a range of city facilities in supporting our community being active and promoting physical activity opportunities through our facilities and programmes. The university therefore is looking to appoint a highly motivated and enthusiastic person to work as a Sport Centre Supervisor. As part of the Sport operations team and in liaison with the Sport Supervisor, the successful candidate will be responsible for the day-to-day operation of the facility, maintenance of the indoor and outdoor site and a high quality experience for all users. We are therefore looking for an enthusiastic and engaging individual to join UoM Sport to support our students and staff being more physically active in our programmes and facilities.
