About Brighton & Hove Albion FC 

We compete at the highest levels of football on a global stage while embracing our Sussex community spirit. At the heart of everything we do is our commitment to high performance, professional excellence, and making a positive impact. 

Ready to make an impact?

Are you passionate about women's football and want to play your part in helping drive fan engagement? If so, then please keep reading!

In this role, you will play a key part in supporting the club's marketing operations, focusing on ticketing, hospitality, and other matchday activities - mainly for our women's first team. Your primary goals will be to grow, retain, and engage the club's audience and fan base, enhancing the matchday experience while driving revenue and commercial opportunities, working closely with our Marketing Events Executive to achieve this. Additionally, you will develop and implement fan-focused programs, events, and initiatives designed to resonate with supporters of all ages.

Is this the role for you?

You will have a genuine passion for football (especially women's football) and understand that it isn't a 9-5 business so we will require working evenings and weekend at times. Our women's team currently play in Crawley, so it would be beneficial to own a car to get yourself to and from matches.

You will be enthusiastic about sports marketing and a proven track record in a marketing role, ideally within a venue or membership organization. Strong written communication skills are essential, along with the ability to craft engaging content and impactful campaigns.
