Currently, the club has a a range of fencers, including competitive cadets (including International U17 level) and experienced seniors.

This role will focus mainly on working with their Cadet and U14 fencers and supporting the growth of fencing in the region.

The minimum hours would be 2/3 hours on one club night (with plans to open additional nights), however for interested candidates there are significant opportunities to expand this through work with local partners, individual lessons and wider community fencing initiatives.

Salary: £25.00/hour for club nights.
