MAN v FAT Health and Wellbeing Coach
MAN v FAT provide year-round men’s weight loss and wellbeing communities in the form of Football & Rugby clubs. They’re exclusively designed for men with a BMI of 27.5 and above. Launched in 2016 by male weight loss specialists, MAN v FAT appeals to men who love football or rugby and hate being fat!
What makes these clubs unique is that the coach weighs each player before their game. Players earn bonus goals for their weight loss so the league is decided not only on points won, but pounds lost. The clubs have been hugely successful with players losing hundreds of thousands of lbs since the programme launched in January 2016 - this has led to the FA and Sport England endorsing our work and supporting the programme. We now have over 160 clubs across the UK!

We’re looking for a dedicated MAN v FAT Health and Wellbeing Coach to support the players and ensure the smooth running and high performance of our club based at Havant RFC, Hooks Lane Ground, Fraser Road, Havant, Hampshire | Monday | 6:30 - 8pm. The role would suit an individual who shares our passion for supporting men in making health and lifestyle improvements in order to lose weight.
Please note: this role does not involve training the players on the pitch or instructing exercise of any kind, this is not a football coaching role. This position is about supporting and motivating players to make healthy lifestyle changes, facilitating a safe and effective session and completing league related admin tasks.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
