**PURPOSE**

We have a hugely exciting opportunity for the right person to join The Hundred as a Ticketing Executive. The purpose of this role is to support the Ticketing team in the development and delivery of The Hundred’s ticketing strategy and deliver an amazing cricket event.

The Hundred launched in 2021 and is a world class cricket tournament for both the men’s and women’s game designed to broaden the appeal of the sport.

With over 510k tickets sold and issued, an overall broadcast reach of 16.1m viewers and record attendances for women’s cricket, the path has been laid for another great year for The Hundred

The ECB is a fun and energising place to work and The Hundred department is lively and full of talent with a “start-up” mentality.

This will be an opportunity to support the team to deliver the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup and a chance to be part of a landmark moment in sporting history.

The ICC Women’s Twenty20 World Cup is the biennial global tournament for women’s T20 international (T20I) cricket. The 2026 event will be the 10th edition of the women’s tournament and is due to be hosted by the England & Wales Cricket Board (ECB), delivered in partnership with the International Cricket Council (ICC). It will be the first time the event has returned to England & Wales since the inaugural tournament in 2009 - which England women won on home soil.
