Tynemouth Amateur Swimming Club, one of the North East’s longest established and most successful clubs, has an exciting opportunity for a level 2 qualified performance coach to develop a talented and dedicated group of swimmers already competing successfully at county and regional level, and to work alongside our head coach and wider coaching team to help prepare swimmers for future success in national competitions.

The club boasts a full Learn to Swim program, feeding into our highly successful competitive performance squads, with more than 300 active swimmers from the age of 3 right through to county, regional and national level age group/youth swimmers, as well as a flourishing Masters squad.

You would also be expected to attend swimming galas with your squad as and when competing.

The ideal candidate will need to demonstrate a strong ability to coach all ages of swimmers, be a serious team player and clearly show a passion for swimming coaching. They should be driven and knowledgeable, with the ability to communicate effectively with swimmers, parents, coaches and teachers, plus actively demonstrate a willingness to maintain an up to date knowledge of swimming coaching.
