Developing Our People

Developing Our People

At the Youth Sport Trust, our success depends on the work and dedication of our employees and volunteers. People are our most important resource, they are the ones who make a difference.

Of all our strengths, it’s our people that set us apart. They come from a wide range of personal and professional backgrounds, united by a shared vision: every child deserves the life-changing benefits of play and sport. This passion and pride fuels a culture of motivation, creativity, and innovation.

We encourage our people to try new things, develop their skills, and grow their careers. We look for individuals who:

  • Think creatively

  • Aren’t afraid to challenge the status quo

  • Have a positive attitude and want to learn
