Shape the future of women's football at Portsmouth Football Club

We are searching for a passionate and driven leader to join Portsmouth Football Club as the General Manager for the women's team. This is an incredible opportunity to make a real impact on the growth and success at Portsmouth Women Football Club.

The Impact You'll Make:

As General Manager, you'll be the driving force behind the Club's long-term strategy for women's football. You'll oversee all aspects of the team, from personnel and budget management to commercial development and day-to-day operations. You'll also build strong relationships with key partners and ensure the Club meets all licensing and regulatory requirements.

Your key responsibilities will include:

  • To develop and deliver a strategy and vision for women's football at the Club.
  • Responsibility for meeting Licence requirements, and to ensure Club adheres to The FA's Rules and Regulations and the Competition Rules.
  • To act as The FA's primary contact for all League Competition business and meetings, in particular: commercial, finance, broadcast, facility, and fixture related issues.
  • Development of relationships with key partners to ensure club sustainability.
  • Attendance at all meetings for League Competitions arranged by The FA.
  • Fixture planning and subsequent management to deliver against the Club's plan for fixtures and events, marketing, and match-day promotion.
  • Administration of first team travel arrangements including booking all necessary hotel and transport bookings.
  • Management of all staff relationships to ensure effective recruitment, day-to-day management, and delivery of all work plans to agreed targets, in particular marketing/match day promotion and attendance requirements.
  • Supporting the coaching and senior management team on player recruitment, contracting, registration and associated salary management.
  • Management and monitoring of the financial regulation scheme in place for the League Competitions.

Your Skills and Experience:

  • Proven track record in a general management or operational management role within a sports environment and ideally within the women’s game.
  • A strong understanding of the rules, regulations and requirements of a football club operating in the Women’s football pyramid.
  • Passion for developing women's football and a commitment to equality in the sport.
  • Awareness of diversity and equality challenges in football.
  • Experience of writing and delivering corporate strategy.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills to build strong relationships.
  • Experience with strategic planning, budgeting, and financial management.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Excel, PowerPoint)

While the essential skills above are key, the ideal candidate will also possess:

  • Existing network within the women's football pyramid in England
