Our people

Sport & Exercise’s staff are extraordinary and our most prized asset.

Currently, we employ 173 staff in a variety of job roles covering operations, clinical, instructor/coaching and administrative designations, across full-time, part-time and ‘guaranteed hours’ contracts. This includes an increasing number of students joining our work-force to enhance our service and support their professional development and future career ambitions. We also engage a number of self-employed consultants to support some activities, including personal training and group exercise programmes.

We are the only UK University department accredited to Investors in People top-level Platinum (high performing) standard, and we are proud to hold the Investors in People’s Health & Well-being kite-mark. More, we attracted an impressive 81% staff engagement, which is one of the highest scores in the University. This is impressive, and underlines our progressive commitment to staff development, engagement, inclusion and well-being.
