Job Description

Regis High School transforms Catholic young men into leaders devoted to Deo et Patriae and lifelong service as Men for Others. Merit based and committed to families with financial need, Regis provides an academically exceptional, tuition-free Jesuit education within a caring community. 

Regis High School is a Catholic, Jesuit college-preparatory school for young men in grades 9–12 in New York City, and the only Jesuit, full-scholarship high school in the country. Founded in 1914 through the generosity of an anonymous woman and her family, Regis offers a tuition-free Jesuit education: every student attends on a full merit scholarship, made possible by the philanthropy of alumni, parents and friends. 

The Strength and Conditioning Coach helps Regis student-athletes in school-sponsored sports programs get stronger, perform better and lower their risk of injury while building fitness habits that last a lifetime. Our goal is to give every athlete who wants to improve the resources to do it. The Strength and Conditioning Coach is responsible for creating programs that student-athletes can follow on their own and hosting weekly sessions for student-athletes. The position requires approximately 2 hours per week. The preference is for the job to be done in-person, but a remote option will be considered. 

• Develop a strength and conditioning program for each sport that student-athletes can follow on their own (at home, at a gym, or in the Regis fitness center).
• Host a regular, weekly 45-minute meeting, providing individual coaching and feedback to students who drop in, and/or presenting information to a group of student-athletes about safe training techniques, nutrition, hydration, etc.
• Communicate regularly with Director of Athletics about strength and conditioning programs, student meetings and student progress. 

Required : 

• A nationally recognized strength and conditioning certification (for example NSCA-CSCS, NASM or a comparable credential).
• Experience designing strength and conditioning programs for athletes, ideally high school or college athletes.
• Strong communication skills 
• Appreciation for Catholic, Jesuit education and a commitment to Regis's mission.

Preferred : 

• Experience working with high school athletes across several sports.
• A degree in exercise science, kinesiology or a related field.

Reports directly to the Director of Athletics.

Interested applicants should submit a cover letter, resume, and a sample training program for one sport. Qualified applicants will be contacted regarding next steps once all required documents have been submitted. Applicants must be eligible to work without visa sponsorship. Applications will be accepted until the position is filled.

The Regis community strives to foster a sense of belonging at all levels of the organization. The hiring managers and school leaders seek to recruit and retain highly talented faculty and staff who are committed to the Catholic Jesuit mission and values. Central to this mission is a commitment to diversity and care for the whole person (cura personalis).
