Coaching Opportunities with EAYR
We accept applications to join our coaching pool on a rolling basis.
East Anglia Youth Rowing is seeking passionate and dedicated individuals to join our team as freelance coaches. Coaching opportunities are currently available in Norwich, Cambridge, Lowestoft, and other locations across East Anglia. We also welcome applications from coaches with links to new locations in the region. Our paid freelance roles include Assistant, Session, and Lead Coach positions, with the appropriate level discussed individually with successful candidates.
At EAYR, our core values of inclusion, challenge, and aspiration are at the heart of everything we do. We are committed to providing opportunities for young people from diverse backgrounds to develop their confidence, resilience, and personal potential through rowing. While rowing coaching qualifications are desirable, we also value equivalent experience and, most importantly, a passion for supporting young people’s personal development above and beyond rowing performance.
All positions are subject to a satisfactory enhanced DBS check, references, and completion of relevant safeguarding training, as safeguarding the welfare of our participants is our top priority. EAYR is an equal opportunities employer, and we actively encourage applications from individuals of all backgrounds, particularly those underrepresented in rowing.
For those interested in developing coaching skills or gaining youth work experience, we also offer volunteer positions and support coach education pathways that could lead to paid roles in the future.
To apply, please complete our Expression of Interest form.
A member of the EAYR team will respond within two weeks. For further enquiries, contact us at: jobs@eayr.org.
Volunteering Opportunities with EAYR
We also offer rewarding volunteering opportunities for individuals passionate about supporting young people’s personal development.

Whether you’re looking to develop coaching skills, gain youth work experience, or simply contribute to a meaningful cause, we’d love to hear from you. Volunteers may also have the opportunity to progress onto coach education pathways, which could lead to paid roles in the future.
