Job Description

Brentwood School is seeking to appoint a part-time Girls' Cricket Coach to support the Girls' Cricket programme, by coaching during Games afternoons and after-school practices, as well as taking fixtures on Saturdays. Working alongside the Head of Cricket, the role will ensure that we can deliver outstanding cricket provision to all age groups and abilities. The successful candidate will coach girls from across all age groups from U12 up to U18, as well as being responsible for a specific age group during Saturday morning fixtures.

Cricket is a focus sport at Brentwood School, with competitions and practices taking place throughout the Trinity term. It is a very popular Games option for our students, with each year group consisting of up to four teams, while there is also a comprehensive indoor programme throughout the winter months. There are hardball and softball options available for all students, helping to enhance skill development and a love for the game. Recent successes include the 1st XI girls team reaching the last 16 of the national cup, while the U17 girls team were crowned county champions last season. We have also had successes in indoor cricket, with both our U13 and U15 teams reaching the regional finals.

This is a term-time role comprising 20 hours per week, including Saturday morning fixtures. The successful post holder will have some flexibility in how their hours are spread over the week; however, please note that 1400 - 1730 Monday - Friday, plus Saturday mornings, are key timings for the role.

This role is a Fixed Term Contract to commence as soon as possible, from April 2026 until July 2026. It may be possible to extend the role for the right candidate.

Our motto, "Virtue, Learning, Manners", taken from the School statutes of 1622, encapsulates our vision for our students and staff. As an academic institution, we recognise the importance of investing in our people and the value of continuing professional development.
