About The Role

The LTA’s vision is “Tennis Opened Up”, and our mission is to transform communities through tennis, focusing on three areas – making tennis welcoming, enjoyable and inspiring to everyone.

The LTA wants tennis to be open to as many people as possible, across the whole of Britain.

In order to achieve this, it must maintain and develop the highest safeguarding standards across the sport.

As part of the Safeguarding Team, the Regional Safeguarding Officer plays a key role in delivering the LTA Safeguarding Plan (2024-26) by taking a pro-active approach to safeguarding and conducting quality assurance procedures on venues, county associations and competitions.

The Regional Safeguarding Officer also plays a key role in managing relationships with volunteers, ensuring high safeguarding and casework standards, and continuously improving safeguarding awareness across tennis.

This role involves regular travel within the North and Midlands West Area, which encompasses Cheshire, Gloucestershire, Herefordshire & Worcestershire, Isle of Man, Lancashire, Shropshire, Staffordshire and Warwickshire.  Occasional travel to the National Tennis Centre in London will also be required. A flexible work pattern (evenings and weekends as required) is essential as the role involves working with volunteers.

Please note that we offer company mileage for this role to support with the nature of the role of up to 45p per mile (up to the first 10,000 miles) or 25p per mile (for any mileage in excess of 10,000 miles in any financial tax year April to March) in line with HMRC limits. Please note travel expenses are subject to the business expenses policy in place at the time.

An Enhanced DBS check is required for this role.

Please note, the application window for this role closes on Sunday 24th November.

Initial interviews will take place from the week commencing Monday 2nd December.

 

Our Culture

The LTA, through its vision “Tennis Opened up”, is committed to creating a diverse environment where all colleagues feel included and a strong sense of belonging. We are proud to actively invite applications from all candidates who meet the essential criteria and can work in the UK. We commit that everyone will receive equal consideration for employment irrespective of your ethnicity, religion, sex, gender reassignment, sexual orientation, age, any disability, marital or civil partnership status, and pregnancy or maternity status.

The LTA Tennis Foundation is a new tennis charity that partners with brilliant people and organisations to improve lives through tennis. It shares the LTA’s vision of ‘Tennis Opened Up’, and it wants to use our sport to make a real difference to people across the whole country. All LTA colleagues have the chance to get involved with the LTA TF, with some directly involved in delivering and leading its work.

To truly deliver our vision of “Tennis Opened up”, we believe it is critical that the LTA plays our part in contributing to a healthier and more sustainable society. We want to grow tennis in Britain, but do so in a responsible way, protecting and supporting the environment and working with everyone in the sport to tackle our climate impacts. We are committed to ensuring a lasting future for tennis in Britain, and our Environmental Sustainability Plan sets out how we will do this.
