JOB SUMMARY:
Join LSE Students' Union as a Sports Coordinator and play a key role in developing and supporting sports clubs and the Athletics Union. You will empower student leaders, coordinate events and fixtures, and ensure a high-quality sports experience for all club members. If you’re passionate about sport and student engagement, we want to hear from you!
Who are we?
Part business, part charity, part membership body – students’ unions are all seriously fun places to work. They are organisations in their own right. Professionally run, but different. Professional teams support elected student leaders to make change, improve lives and fulfil potential; we help make it happen. Founded in 1897, LSE Students' Union is one of the oldest Students' Unions in the UK and is the representative and campaigning body for students at The London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE). Like other Students' Unions, it also funds and facilitates student activities on campus, including 200+ societies, 40+ sports clubs through the Athletics Union (AU), the Media Group and Raising and Giving (RAG) charitable fundraising initiatives.
What's the Job?
LSESU is looking for a dynamic and proactive Sports Coordinator to join our Sports and Recreation team. As the primary point of contact, you will offer support and guidance to Sports Clubs and the Athletics Union (AU), empowering student leaders to create an outstanding experience for all members.
In this role, you’ll coordinate and develop Sports Clubs with a strong focus on inclusivity, health and safety, and the effective planning of fixtures, activities, and events.

You’ll work closely with both staff and student volunteers, contributing to the strategic and operational planning of the Sports and Recreation Team. Your role will directly impact the student experience at LSE, ensuring the smooth delivery of a wide range of student sport provisions, from facilitating impactful training for student leaders to overseeing the seamless execution of key events and sports fixtures.
Who are we looking for?
We’re looking for an enthusiastic and highly organised individual who is passionate about student sport and physical activity. You should be able to work independently, with excellent interpersonal and communication skills to engage a diverse range of audiences—from student volunteers to external partners.
To succeed in this role, you’ll need to demonstrate exceptional organisational skills, a methodical approach to administration, and the ability to solve problems creatively. While experience working with student-led sports clubs or societies, supporting volunteers, and a solid understanding of BUCS and LUSL fixtures is ideal, it’s not essential.
We’re looking for someone with a genuine passion for motivating others to be active, a strong work ethic, and a collaborative approach to working.
Why apply?
Because you’re excited by the challenge! The exact opposite of corporate, we’re progressive, daring and creative individuals working to make a difference in unconventional workplaces. Plus…
