Broad experience across multiple sports (preferably not narrow specialisation)
Strong school-based experience
Exposure to high-performance environments
Experience working with male and female athletes
Proven ability to lead whole program delivery (not only elite programs)
Program leadership development and implementation across Prep - Year 12, male and female.
Effective stakeholder management across staff, students, parents, and external partners

About Newington College
Newington College is a school bustling with opportunity and rigour. We aim to teach students to think critically, stretch their learning and approach life with
curiosity and open-mindedness. That also applies to everyone who works here - from teachers and grounds staff to the finance and admissions teams.

What else sets us apart? We strive to create a culture underpinned by our diverse and inclusive community – students, parents, carers, staff, alumni and our neighbours. The College is supported by a strong sense of integrity, respect, honesty, fairness and responsibility. Collaboration and support are also key, so we ensure all staff have the resources available to make the most of every opportunity.

Founded in 1863 by the Uniting Church, Newington College is an ELC to Year 12 school in Sydney’s humming inner west and the north shore. This year, the College has begun our exciting transition to co-education, welcoming girls into Kindergarten and Year 5. The College has more than two thousand students across five vibrant campuses and is a member of the GPS Association of NSW.
Our mission is to empower students to develop great hearts, inspired minds and strong wings, ready to make a positive contribution to society and the future.

If our approach appeals to you – and if you think you could help us achieve our goals – we’d like to hear from you.

Further information about the College, its programs and its strategic plans are available on the College website: www.newington.nsw.edu.au.
