British Rowings vision is to lead a sport that welcomes everyone by creating opportunities to participate regardless of goal age background or ability. We are dedicated to creating an Olympic pathway that is open and accessible so that any individual who has the potential to row or coach for Great Britain can discover their ambitions and achieve them.

You will play a key role within that Pathway as the Performance Development Coach (Based at Lea Rowing Club) to identify recruit and develop new athletes (predominantly Juniors and students/U21s) with future Olympic potential who might not otherwise enter the sport of rowing or excel within a traditional mainstream rowing pathway.

This specific role is based in East London working with partners including local clubs London Youth Rowing and the London Regatta Centre. East London is a hugely diverse region with a rich rowing history. This is an exciting opportunity to identify a new generation of talent from the area and drive forwards the performance of athletes from East London towards future GB representation and ultimately Olympic success.
