Current roles
Padel Club Manager
We're looking for a Club Manager to lead unbound — someone who cares about people, loves padel, understands hospitality, and knows how to create a place where everyone feels welcome.
About us
Unbound is built for everyone. We're creating a space with great courts, thoughtful coaching, and regular socials where people of all levels can move, connect, and play their game. Our café and retail offering mean you've got what you need under one roof — whether you're here to play, watch, or just be part of something. This is a place where progress matters more than perfection, and everyone belongs.
