Specialization trainer / coach
We are preferably looking for a water polo trainer/coach who is also employable as a swimming trainer. Should you have expertise in only one area we still encourage you to apply.
It is expected that you can offer water polo training in a varied way and at different levels. For Men’s 1 you will also be the coach throughout the competition season.

You will guide these often inexperienced trainers and provide them with advice. Furthermore, we expect the trainer to be able to communicate well in both Dutch and English.
