VACANCY- Sales Representative

FC United are looking to appoint a Sales Representative for a limited period commencing on the 1st June and running to mid-August 2019.

The successful applicant will be part of the Commercial team working to secure new advertising and sponsorship business at the club for the 2019/20 season, primarily focusing on stadium and matchday advertising.

They will sell products by establishing contact and developing relationships with prospects; recommending suitable packages for client needs and to set out future actions so that the club can meet sponsor requirements over the season as agreed.

FC United was established in 2005 as a different way of running a football club, where fans had a formal role and an equal say in making decisions. We are football with a conscience. A club borne out of a belief that the game was being taken further and further away from the fans and that this needed to change.

In 2015, following 10 years of ground sharing and fund-raising, the Club established its home stadium at Broadhurst Park in Moston. Our men’s team play in the Northern Premier League and our women’s team play in the Premier division of the North West Regional League. In addition, we have Academy sides, Disability Teams and a Walking Football team who all play at Broadhurst Park.

Our men’s team average gates are 2,000 each week. We have 800,000 followers on social media and have a total footfall across the stadium of 120,000 visits per year.

FC United is an equal opportunities employer and positively encourages applications from suitably qualified and eligible candidates regardless of sex, race, disability, age, sexual orientation, gender reassignment, religion or belief, marital status, or pregnancy and maternity. We are committed to ensuring that all candidates for employment and voluntary roles at the Club are treated fairly, and that selection is based solely on the individual merits of candidates and on selection criteria relevant to the post.

We are looking for someone with the right background and skills who can step into the role immediately and become part of the commercial team.
