About the Football Foundation
The Football Foundation is the country's largest sports charity. It funds the improvement of public sports facilities across the country – especially grassroots football facilities.
Since it was launched in 2000, the Foundation has delivered projects worth more than £1.5 billion, which has developed more than 780 third-generation (3G) artificial grass pitches (AGP) with floodlights, more than 1,000 modern changing pavilions, and helped to renovate and properly maintain thousands of natural turf football pitches up and down the country. These high quality, sustainable facilities are helping to improve the experience of those who play football for the love of doing so, to stay fit and healthy, and to help better players be as good as they can be by developing their potential.
The role
This is a great opportunity to use the technical skills gained in your degree to make a real difference to grassroots community football while gaining real hands-on practical experience of facility development. You will get involved in all technical aspects of the grant management process while working alongside experienced professionals who will mentor and guide you on your way to becoming a fully experienced Technical Project Manager.
You will take a hands-on approach, involving site visits and providing technical advice to a wide range of applicants – from schools and clubs to community groups. You will work towards having responsibility for a portfolio of projects across the country.
What are we looking for?
We would love to hear from you if you are a graduate with a relevant construction related degree:
Architecture
Building surveying
Planning
Civil engineering
Quantity surveying
Project management
Construction management
You must also have great people skills and the ability to work with people at all levels, from clients and suppliers to volunteers. You must be accurate, systematic and flexible with the ability to juggle a wide range of activities. You don’t need to be passionate about football to apply, but you must have a genuine interest in the charity sector and share our passion for getting more people across the country taking part in sports and being active.
As you will undertake site visits across the area, it will be desirable, though not essential, that you hold a current, clean driving licence and have access to your own vehicle.

We also offer a generous pension scheme (8% employer contribution), free health care provision, a monthly gym subsidy, interest-free season ticket loan, death in service benefit and access to selected match tickets.
We are committed to helping our staff maintain a healthy work-life balance, so offer flexible working hours around core hours to help you achieve that.
The Foundation offers a great learning environment, with the opportunity to grow your skills and knowledge and develop your career. You will also have access to an active support network of line managers and experience and knowledgeable individuals to help you be your best.
