REVEL is creating a non profit youth running program and is seeking to hire a part time director to manage all aspects of the program.

The initial goal of the program is to work with youth to train for and complete the REVEL Big Cottonwood marathon or half marathon. Whereas most youth sports programs focus on competition, the focus of this program is completion. Now more than ever it is important to teach youth lessons in setting fitness goals, developing an active lifestyle, learning that exercise is essential, and building confidence to accomplish difficult tasks. While it is expected that exercising should be hard, it can also be fun and rewarding. The opportunities for youth to participate in organized sports and recreational programs diminishes the older they get.  Such programs increasingly focus on competition and the most gifted athletes as youth get older. Thus we envision a program for all levels of athletes in the middle and high school ages.

For this position, we seek a motivated leader with the vision and capabilities of growing this program to be financially self sufficient and then expanding it to other cities beyond Salt Lake. It is expected that as this program is successful, that this position will grow into a full time position with opportunities for leadership and benefits. Initially, hours are flexible.

Job responsibilities include:

• Selecting/developing youth training programs.
• Recruiting coaches/mentors to lead youth groups.
• Develop a working budget.
• Fundraise to find sponsors, grants, donors, etc. to make the program self sufficient.

The initial pay and exact number of hours are negotiable. This position is for our offices in Highland, UT. This person is expected to live in UT and be able to work with youth on weekends and evenings as necessary.

Interested candidates should send a cover letter and resume to jobs@brooksee.com.
