Office All Rounder

Slow Yoga teach yoga classes to those less able to join a class in a gym, yoga centre or church hall etc.

We teach elderly persons in care homes and not so elderly persons with autism, SEN etc in Residential Homes.

We are expanding outside of our Surrey roots and are looking for someone to help the CEO in doing that.

Your role will be managing the diaries of our teachers, canvassing for classes for them by cold calling care homes, getting a contact, send them an email proposal and then following that up a few days later to sign them up. This would be a major part of the role because no business can operate successfully without cashflow.

Depending on how you get on with this and whether you are happy to do so, we can then look at simple bookkeeping, marketing and writing blogs about Health & Wellbeing, diet, nutrition and the importance of movement to our general wellbeing. Dance movement and other forms of sensory engagement. All of the yoga teachers who work for us now are qualified yoga teachers, so in addition to teaching chair-based yoga in care homes, we want to start developing networks with offices and corporations, schools, the NHS, Fire, Police and Prison services with the aim of bringing the wellbeing benefits of Yoga to everyone we dare to think of...

This means the role would not always be remote / home based / office-based but would also require going out to potential clients and talking with them face to face.

Slow Yoga also attend trade expos like the recent Care Show UK at the NEC in Birmingham.

We have also been invited to start working in Italy and Japan, which we are working on now and that is another reason why we need some more 'hands on deck'.

So; if you are a good fit, there will be opportunities for you to travel too.

You should be interested in wellbeing (not necessarily yoga) and lead a fairly clean lifestyle within reason (we can't be angels all the time). Non-smoker and drink socially are OK. A car driver, confident and possess the ability to think and work outside the box. Our CEO worked for a record company in London during the 80s / 90s, so please do not apply if you are scared of a slightly unorthodox approach to work.

And if you have made it this far, then you are obviously interested, so maybe you'd like to watch this video to get some idea of what we do, thanks for being interested and giving us some of your precious time, namaste.
