Active Campus Activator

Will you be a University of Leeds undergraduate or postgraduate student during the 2024/25 academic year?
Do you have a passion for engaging staff and students in sport and physical activity? Do you want to gain valuable experience organising and delivering varied activity sessions in a sports setting?
Overview of the role
The University of Leeds Sport and Physical Activity strategy aims to enable more of the University of Leeds community to benefit from the positive impacts of sport and physical activity. This is through three pillars: health and wellbeing, development and potential and sense of belonging.
Contributing to work across all three pillars, we are looking to recruit two part-time activators to support the facilitation and delivery of our Active Campus programme for staff and students.
Our Active Campus programme provides an inclusive and social environment for our staff and students to be active.
The programme offers weekly social sport sessions across our various sports facilities on campus. Sports include badminton and netball. Your assistance will also be needed at other participation events such as campus colour runs.
You will have a drive and passion to make a difference to the health and wellbeing of others through physical activity. You will be responsible for co-ordinating, facilitating and delivering social sport sessions for staff and students which will require you to work independently and as part of the wider multi-disciplinary team within Sport and Physical Activity.
This role is fixed term until 31 August 2025. You will be appointed on a 1-year casual worker agreement and will not be a University of Leeds employee. There will be up to around 8 hours ad hoc per week available. Please note that the total number of working hours available for this role will be variable and be dependent on the needs of the business. The post holder will be required to work some evenings and flexibility will be required.
