Westonbirt School is seeking an ambitious, entrepreneurial Polo Team Manager to lead, develop and promote all aspects of our Polo provision, delivered in partnership with the world-famous Beaufort Polo Club.
This is both a strategic and operational role, responsible for delivering an outstanding pupil experience while building a vibrant, sustainable and high-profile Polo programme that directly supports pupil recruitment and admissions.
