Operations Officer Vacancy

Join our team!

We are seeking to recruit an Operations Officer to carry out all aspects of the work allocated to the Operations team within our organisation. A general job description is attached.

To join the team and be successful, the individual must be able to demonstrate an understanding of the role on offer and how their expertise and experience will enable them to meet the essential and desirable criteria within the role.

The interview panel must be convinced of the individual’s passion, inspiration, and professionalism for the role.

The successful applicant will report to the Operations Manager.

Applicants should be computer literate, ideally have a football interest though not essential, with presentation and communication skills capable of carrying out and implementing administration systems.

The individual should be able to work occasional evenings and weekends when required. A six-month probationary period is applicable to this role. The position will receive a salary in the range of £16,500-£17,500 (dependent on experience) per annum.

We are committed to safeguarding children and adults at risk, and anyone working with us will be required to follow our safeguarding policies.

Due to the nature of this role, the successful candidate may be required to undertake a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check through The FA DBS process. The possession of a criminal record will not necessarily prevent an applicant from obtaining this post, as all cases are judged individually according to the nature of the role and information provided.

An exciting opportunity to join a forward thinking, progressive business
A chance to work with key stakeholders within the grassroots and professional game
A commitment to empowered and supportive personal development
