Experiences From Former Operations Officer
Former Operations Officer reflects on her time at House of Sport:
My time at House of Sport has been beyond memorable. I had the pleasure of supporting the inspirational charities and organisations based at House of Sport with their everyday needs. It was a great opportunity to meet and develop relationships with the inspiring people who play a key role in the sport and physical activity sector. Not only did this aid my understanding of the sector, it helped grow my professional network.
The role set me up extremely well for my future career, as I was able to develop my relationship building, multi-tasking and communication skills. I particularly enjoyed how the nature of the role is fast-paced and reactive, as this meant that everyday posed a new challenge and was slightly different. This dynamic role is full of opportunities for personal and professional development, and I would encourage anyone who’s interested to apply or speak with a member of the incredible House of Sport team.
