MAN v FAT Football provide 14 week, small sided football leagues exclusively designed to support overweight and obese men to improve their physical and mental health. Launched in 2016 by male weight loss specialists, MAN v FAT appeals to men who love football and hate being fat!

What makes these leagues unique is that the league coach weighs each player before their game. Players earn bonus goals for their weight loss. The league is decided not only on points won, but pounds lost.

The leagues have been hugely successful with players losing hundreds of thousands of lbs since the programme launched in January 2016 - this has led to the FA and Sport England endorsing our work and supporting the programme. We now have over 80 leagues across the UK!

Check out our recent appearance on BBC Breakfast here!

We’re looking for a dedicated MAN v FAT League Coach to support the players and ensure the smooth running and high performance of our league based in Grantham at Grantham Meres Leisure Centre (Mondays, from 9 – 10pm). The role would suit an individual who shares our passion for supporting men in making health and lifestyle improvements in order to lose weight.

Please note this role does not involve training the players on the pitch or instructing exercise of any kind, this is not a football coaching role. This position is about supporting and motivating players, facilitating a safe and effective session and completing league related admin tasks.

Requirements

More than anything, we are looking for a team player who puts their heart in to their work. We hire based on attitude over traditional skills and experience so if you feel you are right for the job we would love to hear from you! Need more reasons to apply? This role is for you if;

  • You’re well organised and can manage time effectively
  • You have excellent communication skills
  • You have an understanding (or first-hand experience!) of weight loss
  • You’re confident using a computer (this role includes some online data entry)
  • You have a current First Aid qualification (preferential!)
  • You have access to your own transport (league equipment will need transporting to and from sessions - full training and equipment is provided to fulfil the role!)

  • MAN v FAT is an equal opportunity workplace. We are committed to equal employment opportunity and will not discriminate.

    Benefits

    Contract This is a permanent, part time (3 hours a week) role with potential to expand as the league grows.

    Hours are split between face to face player support delivering player weigh ins (this will always take place on Monday evenings – please only submit an application if you are available to work at this time) and completing league-related admin throughout the week.

    Salary£15 - £20 p/hour

    Perks Every person makes MAN v FAT the incredible place it is to work and play, together we’re unstoppable! We offer you;
    • Free membership to a MAN v FAT Football or MAN v FAT Challenge league!
    • Employee Health and Wellbeing programmes, such as SilverCloud (our digital Mental Health and Wellbeing platform) and The Other Room Virtual Gym
    • Access to First Aid and Mental Health First Aid Training
