About Roman Boxing Gym

Roman Boxing Gym is a registered charity and an England Boxing-affiliated club based at Bellotts Road in Bath. We are run entirely by volunteers, with no paid positions at the club. Founded on Boxing Day 2018, we’ve built a strong reputation for delivering high-quality boxing training to everyone from complete beginners to competitive athletes. While we count national and regional champions among our ranks, many of our members train for fitness, enjoyment, and the sense of community we’re proud to foster. We’re a welcoming, community-focused club with a supportive atmosphere, committed to helping people grow both inside and outside the ring. We pride ourselves on being inclusive and ambitious, with a passion for developing not only our boxers, but also the coaches who support them.

• Suggest and develop new content formats such as short videos, behind-the-scenes clips, or boxer features
• Track engagement and post performance using platform insights or free analytics tools
• Help shape a consistent visual style and tone of voice across all platforms

• Comfortable writing copy and presenting content in a clear, engaging way
• Has a genuine interest in amateur boxing, sport, or local community involvement
• Reliable, creative, and able to work independently with guidance and support when needed
• Able to commit to a steady rhythm of posting (about 2 to 3 times per week), with flexibility around events and club activities
• Willing to complete safeguarding training and an enhanced DBS check, in line with England Boxing and club requirements
