Student Opportunities
The UK Sports Institute (UKSI) is the world-leading organisation it is today because of its employees. We are always looking for people to join who are passionate, innovative and eager to continuously learn and develop.
Throughout the year there are a number of opportunities for students and recent graduates to join us and move forwards in their careers.
The UK Sports Institute engage with a number of students each year to enable them to operate in the high-performance environment whilst working towards a Post Graduate Qualification.
For insight on working in elite sport and the skills required, please check out the ‘Resources’ section of the UK Sports Institute website where you’ll find top tips articles, blogs, useful websites links and interviews with our practitioners.
Student development opportunities
Skills4Performance
Each year, excluding Olympic and Paralympic years, the UK Sports Institute runs an immersive workshop known as Skills4Performance (S4P). Skills4Performance aims to provide insight into the elite sport environment and seek out talented individuals looking to develop their careers in high-performance sport. Skills4Performance offers unique workshops and inspiring speakers that aim to give attendees a better understanding of what is required to work in high-performance sport. A number of previous attendees have subsequently gone on to secure a role within the Institute.
