Junior Coach

Job Overview: Parkour DXB is a growing coaching organisation seeking to expand its team of professional, international coaches. We are excited to offer attractive packages for full-time coaching positions. Candidates should be experienced in working with kids, from young children to teenagers, and have relevant qualifications or experience, such as Parkour or sports coaching. The role will involve coaching our Academy Curriculum programme to group classes of young people aged 3 to 17. The role also involves the delivery of holiday camps and workshops, and potentially adult classes and Private Tuition. The majority of the coaching will take place in one of our branches in Dubai, but the role may occasionally require coaching to take place at a satellite location. This is a great opportunity for someone who wants to challenge themselves and take the next step on their Parkour coaching journey. Working Structure: We roughly follow the academic calendar, using term time and school holidays as our guide for scheduling our classes and camps. This also influences the number of days worked per week, and the number of hours worked per day. A guide to our annual working structure is as follows: Term periods: 6 days per week; up to 42 hours of work; around 25 classes per week. Holiday periods: 5 days per week; up to 42 hours of work; either two 3-hour camps or one camp and three classes per day. Support: While we expect applicants to be suitably experienced and/or qualified, we will provide an induction programme which will allow you to familiarise yourself with the role, our processes and our company culture. The Head Coach responsible for the branch you’ll be working in will hold performance review meetings, set tasks and help you to develop your skills over time. What we are looking for: We’re looking for coaches who are passionate about Parkour and sharing its ethos and benefits to young people. Applicants should be existing Parkour practitioners willing to share ideas and play an active role within our community. We’re looking for people with a growth mindset who are keen to take on challenges. The first challenge is relocating to another country! We understand that this is a big commitment, but there’s a ready-made support network of coaches who have already been through the same experience.
