We’re looking for a First Team Scout (Volunteer) based in the East of Scotland to cover the Lowland League, EOSFL, and occasional League Two games. Again we have seen a few scouts move up the leagues into roles with SPFL clubs. In the past we have had scouts move to agencies and even teams abroad, so we’re opening up new spots in our scouting network. If you’re looking to take your first step into the football industry, this could be a great opportunity.
