Sports & Outdoor Jobs / Courses

Jobs involving sports vary hugely in the qualifications and skills required by the employer.

If you are qualified to a resonable standard in any discipline you will have little problem finding work in the UK, and great many more outdoor jobs abroad. From outdoor centres in Scotland and the surf breaks of South West France, to superb diving off the Great Barrier Reef, there are opportunities to instruct, learn and support. Some companies operate systems where you can attain certificates in outdoor pursuits while you are working.

Sports instruction and working in the physical education sector suits Season Workers nicely as many jobs that come up are seasonal or fixed term. Most sports employers will require you to be qualified if you want to work as an instructor or coach straight away but some support jobs offer you the chance to qualify in your spare time for free. This kind of job can be easily integrated into a gap year (although this type of activity is by no means limited to students).

Search this section for all you need to know about working and training in sports and outdoor activities around the World. We also have a brand new section covering jobs in field study centres, these centres often have a seasonal requirement for support staff and qualified group leaders.
