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.

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.
