We're looking for energetic, resilient and positive Sports Mentors to support pupils in schools across Bristol. If you've worked in coaching, sports development, personal training, youth work or mentoring, this could be the perfect next step.

• Youth Worker

• Behaviour Mentor

• Sports Development Officer

What you'll be doing:

• Supporting pupils both in and out of the classroom

• Using sport and physical activity to build confidence and engagement

• Helping pupils develop positive relationships and social skills

• Supporting children with SEND, SEMH and behavioural needs

• Acting as a positive role model throughout the school day

• Encouraging participation, resilience and self-belief

We'd love to hear from you if you:

• Have experience working with children or young people

• Have a coaching, sports or mentoring background

• Are confident building relationships and setting boundaries

• Bring enthusiasm, patience and a positive attitude

• Want to make a genuine difference in young people's lives

Why work with Protocol Education?

• Weekly PAYE pay, no umbrella companies

• FREE access to our online CPD Academy

• Personalised support from a dedicated consultant

• Opportunities across mainstream, SEND and alternative provisions

• Flexible and long-term opportunities available

• Referral scheme with rewards for recommending friends
