The successful candidate will have a strong track record of excellent results, experience in delivering a wide range of practical activities both within the curriculum and as part of wider student enrichment, and the confidence to incorporate specialist knowledge, particularly in Anatomy & Physiology, Psychology, and Fitness Testing and Training into dynamic and engaging learning experiences.
