The school is seeking to appoint a 1st XI Cricket Coach from April 2019.
The successful applicant will join the PE & Games Department and report to the Head of Cricket and the Director of Sport.

The successful candidate will typically coach as minimum of Sixth Form Games on Wednesday afternoons, at one after school training session and a Saturday fixture on weekends throughout the Summer Term.
