Player Manager

Padel People  |  Boston, Lincolnshire

Full-time  ·  £30,000 base + share of off-peak revenue  ·  On court, on site

The role

You're the face of the club on court. Your job is to get people playing, keep them coming back, and fill the off peak hours that most venues leave empty. You'll coach, play, run sessions, and build a regular base of members who come because of you.

What you'll do

•     Coach and play with members across all levels, from first-timers to competitive players

•     Run clinics, social sessions, leagues and events that bring people in

•     Drive bookings in off-peak hours (weekday daytimes) and turn quiet courts into full ones

•     Be the welcoming, recognisable presence that members associate with the club

•     Help run the day-to-day on site so the playing experience is first class

Who we're looking for

•     A strong padel player. This is non-negotiable - members will play with and learn from you, so you need to hold a genuine standard on court

•     Naturally good with people: warm, energetic, and able to make anyone feel welcome

•     Self-motivated and commercially minded - you understand that filling quiet hours is the job

•     Reliable and organised enough to run a site, not just coach on it

•     Coaching qualifications are a plus, but playing ability and people skills matter more

Package

•     £30,000 base salary

•     Plus a share of off-peak revenue - the more you fill the quiet hours, the more you earn

•     28 days holiday including bank holidays

•     Workplace pension

•     Free court access and a genuine say in how the Boston site is run
