    No point applying for that then if it's been kicked already.

    £24k a year (at best) for what sounds like a decent amount of responsibility, delivering against KPIs, supervisory responsibilities and mandatory experience working with young people. Absolute joke.

    Yep. Work a 40 hour week at minimum wage and you won't be far behind what this job pays

    I did think that’s an awful lot of responsibilities for 21k!

    Raised an eyebrow at this myself. 3 weeks worth of our esteemed MIA striker.

    A nationally recognised youth or community qualification, or uefa coaching badges. Essential.

    Management, first aid and safeguarding qualifications - desirable.

    Essential experience includes monitoring and evaluating, supervising and mentoring, a proven track record of working with young people in a sporting setting and working experience of working with people aged 8-19.

    Ability to produce and present written reports and MI.

    Plenty more required too.

    All of that adds up to a job with a lot of responsibility, and requires someone with qualifications, education, a fair bit of experience and an established skill set.

    £21,000-£24,000 per year is absolutely awful for that: but I don’t blame the club as such, it’s possibly the going rate. But it really shouldn’t be. At 37 hours a week the lower end of the range pays under £11 per hour.

    McDonalds pays £10.60 to over 23’s.

    Aldi starts all staff on £11 minimum.

    Lidl £11.40.

    Minimum wage, well, living wage as they call it, laughably, is £10.42 for aged 23+.

    For a 37 hour week that would be a salary of £20,048. Why would you gain qualifications, skills and experience to take a job which pays barely more than it would be illegal to pay less than?

    I shudder to think what some of the other non-playing or coaching employees at the club earn.

    Just for accuracy.....

    Aldi pay a minimum of £11.40 plus paid breaks.
    Lidl pay the same but unpaid breaks.

    :D

    Just strengthens the point.

    To be honest I did assume aldi had matched Lidl’s pay rate as they tend to.

    Tesco shift leader is £13.83, not including Sunday uplift. So about £3-4k a year better off.

    I'm surprised at the surprise on this thread. This is how the labour market is. A race to the bottom.

    I know a good number of graduates who have left the public sector professions they're qualified for to go to non-professional jobs where they can clock off at the end of the day and forget about it.

    The level of responsibility, stress, strategic planning and deadline meeting unpaid overtime just isn't worth the extra £150 a month.
