🔴⚪ FIRST TEAM LEAD COACH VACANCY
Knaphill FC are looking to appoint a First Team Lead Coach to join our senior management team.
Competing at Step 5 in the Combined Counties Premier Division South, we are looking for an experienced and ambitious coach who can enhance what we already have, bringing their own identity, ideas and coaching approach into the First Team environment.
Working alongside First Team Manager Mike Woolgar and Assistant Manager Daryl Cooper-Smith, the successful candidate will have significant ownership of the First Team coaching programme, with the freedom to shape how we train, develop and prepare.
The role will include:
⚽ Planning and leading First Team training
⚽ Technical and tactical development
⚽ Match preparation and coaching input
⚽ Player and unit development
⚽ Performance and opposition analysis
⚽ Helping drive standards across the First Team environment
We are particularly interested in coaches with strong experience within senior men’s non-league football, ideally at Step 5 or above, who understand the demands of the National League System.
This could be an excellent opportunity for an experienced First Team Coach or Assistant Manager looking for greater responsibility and the chance to take real ownership of a senior coaching programme.
We are not simply looking to fill a vacancy.
We want someone who can complement the existing management team, challenge our thinking, bring their own identity and help take the environment forward.
📩 To express an interest, email [email protected] with a brief outline of your current role, coaching experience and what you believe you could bring to the Knaphill First Team.
