Early Education Professionals Needed for Children Ages 2-8: Greater Indianapolis Area (Boone, Hamilton, Hendricks, Johnson, Marion Counties) & West Lafayette/Lafayette

Soccer Shots is the best-in-class children’s soccer program with a focus on character development, for ages 2-8. We also look to develop motor skills and teamwork. Our goal is simple: leave a lasting, positive impact on every child we serve. We want Soccer Shots to be the BEST 30-35 minutes of each child’s week.

We hire and train only the best instructors to work with our children. Working with children is something we don’t take lightly, and it’s imperative that you not only enjoy working with children, but that you are incredibly passionate about it. Our coaches are the “face” of Soccer Shots as they travel to our partnering locations (preschools, daycares, and public parks) and implement the Soccer Shots curriculum.

We are currently looking for qualified coaches, preschool teachers, or other driven individuals who love working with children to join our team. Soccer experience is helpful; however, experience working with young children is preferred. There are full-time and part-time positions available.

Why Soccer Shots?

Flexible scheduling: There is some flexibility in scheduling; meaning that if there are some morning or afternoons where you aren’t available, we can work around that. However, once your schedule is set with us, it won’t change. You’ll be at the same locations at the same times each week, and we need you to be committed for the entire season.
Competitive pay: Starting lead pay is $17 per session (approx. $34/hr), with room to grow (training pay is $12 per session). At most locations, there will be multiple classes, meaning you will be instructing 2-4 consecutive sessions ($34-$68 for an hour or two of coaching). All coaches start out with about 15-20 sessions a week, with growth opportunities for more sessions and more responsibility.
National presence: Soccer Shots is a national program with over 190 territories across 34 states. Get your foot in the door with us, and see where it may take you!

Candidates must be able to commit to at least the next 3-4 seasons (9-12 months), and ideal candidates are looking for long term employment (12 months) and growth opportunities.

Requirements:

Availability: Full-time coaches must be available from 8am-5pm Monday-Friday, up to 2 weekday evenings (4pm-7pm), and possibly Saturday mornings if needed. Part-time coaches must be available at least 3 full days a week, all mornings Monday-Friday, or all afternoons/evenings Monday-Friday.

Enthusiastic/High Energy: Must enjoy interacting with young children (2-8 years old, most are 2-5 years old), and be able to connect with them on their level, making the Soccer Shots class the best 30 minutes of their week! You must be very outgoing and animated, and able to to silly, full of energy, and bubbly at every session!
