British Dressage (BD) is the National Governing Body for the Olympic and Paralympic sport of dressage in the UK, with over 19,000 members and 17,000 horses currently registered. We offer competition, training, and participation activity for riders at all levels, from grass roots to elite level. An exciting opportunity has arisen to join the team as Sport Operations Officer, based at our head office in Meriden, West Midlands.

We are looking for an enthusiastic, positive, diligent, and proactive self-starter, with excellent administrative and organisation skills, to help us maintain high standards of customer service for our increasing membership. Working as an integral part of the Sport Operations team, this role will provide general assistance across the department to support the delivery of BD competitions and championships.

  • You will be highly organised, personable, and approachable, with a proactive ‘can do’ attitude.

  • You will be a reliable and effective team player, who is equally adept at working independently when required.

  • A good working knowledge of Microsoft Word, Excel and Outlook is essential, while an active interest in equestrianism, with a good knowledge and understanding of dressage, would also be advantageous.

This is a full-time office-based role, with standard working hours of 9.00am to 5.00pm, Monday to Friday. A hybrid working option is available on successful completion of a probationary period. Some travel to events may be required from time to time, including occasional weekend and / or evening working at BD Championships.
