Job Description
We are a football club with a desire to be the best and are always looking for talented people to join our Everton Family.
Everton is a workplace people crave to join, where extraordinary talented people belong, thrive and deliver the remarkable.
Steward Administrator
Who are we: We are Everton Football Club - one of only three clubs to have been founding members of both the Football League and the Premier League. We are proud of our rich and successful history, our innovation, and our global fan base – and we are now getting ready for the next exciting chapter in our story.
In summer 2025, we will leave Goodison Park, our iconic home for more than 130 years, and move to a state-of-the-art 52,888-capacity stadium on the banks of the River Mersey. Our new home will be among the most sustainable, accessible and technologically advanced in the country.
Our values underpin how we behave, how we represent ourselves in our city and across the world of football, and how we look after one another daily. They provide a framework for how we work with partners, suppliers and, most importantly, our fans.
About the opportunity: In Summer 2025, we will kick off our first Premier League season in our new home on the Liverpool waterfront. As we rapidly gear up our plans for the move from Goodison Park to Everton Stadium, we are looking for a Steward Administrator to join our Stadium Operations Department and be responsible for providing full administrative support to the Stewarding Manager/Deputy Safety Officer and when necessary, the wider Stadium Operations Department.
As Steward Administrator you will have a primary focus on supporting and administrating all stewarding processes such as recruitment, training, and general day to day steward enquiries, working closely with the Clubs People Team.
You will support the general deployment and resourcing for operations utilising both the current systems in place (Venue Aware and Workday).
Not only will you get to be a part of something special as we move towards entering our new Everton Stadium, but you will be responsible for driving forward a key strategic pillar for the Club.
Who we are looking for: We are looking for a proven administration professional with experience of supporting the administrative function within a busy department, who understands the importance of data and the principles of managing complex data, including up to date knowledge of the Data Protection Act.
If you are a self-starter with an ambitious spirit who is prepared to work in a fast-paced environment, execute against ambitious goals and consistently embrace our Everton Values in what you do, then we would love to hear from you!
This position is on a permanent contract and will be contracted to 35 hours per week.
The location for this role is within our Club’s iconic football stadium at Goodison Park, and then moving to Everton Stadium once completed, with the opportunity to work flexibly with our Hybrid working approach.
Everton FC Careers
We are Everton Football Club and are one of the icons of world club football. As one of the bastions of the global game, with a rich and successful history, we are now setting our sights on a new, exciting future.
Our values underpin how we behave, how we represent our club in our city, and across the world of football, and how we look after one another daily. They provide a framework for how we work with partners, suppliers, and most importantly our fans.
Everton, 'the people's club,' is a mainstay in English football dating back to a time when Everton's Mere Green development was the first 'major' football stadium in the country. Today's facilities at Goodison Park are a little different, of course, but the passion and loyalty of its supporters, coupled with the values of the club, stands as strong as it once did.
With Everton's plans for a new 52,888 capacity stadium at Bramley-Moore Dock in Liverpool approaching, perhaps now is the perfect time to begin a career at Everton Football Club. Now under Farhad Moshiri's management, the club has its sights firmly set on improving both on and off the football pitch. The opportunities which the new project will bring to Liverpool are vast, and it will likely mean that jobs at Everton FC will be hot property.
Although there is a feeling of genuine change at Everton FC, spearheaded by the legendary Carlo Ancelotti, the sense of family and togetherness is still at the core of the club's day to day running. Everton FC boasts such values and is recognised as a family-orientated club with proud traditions. A career at Everton FC should be considered for those reasons alone, as Amanda Chatterton, Community Business Development Manager at Everton FC , highlights in her staff testimonial on the club's website, "It has been amazing from day one. Family is the most important thing to Everton. It has been my family from both working life and personal. People are friendly and supportive, and I have built some great relationships. The fact that we are in The Sunday Times Top 100 companies to work for says it all. It really is a pleasure to come into work every day."
The inclusion of Everton FC in The Sunday Times top 100 companies to work for in 2019 is recognisable for what it is within the club; a fantastic achievement. This recognition was largely thanks to Everton implementing several employee initiatives, including groups for the workforce, such as the LGBT+ Network and The Women's network. The Toffees were the first football club ever to be named on the list, highlighting just how appealing jobs at Everton FC are to jobseekers.
The organisation presents a diverse workforce across a variety of different roles and sectors, with benefits including but not limited to:
- Living Wage Employer
- Over 39% of the workforce earning over £35k
- Sunday Times Top 100 Companies 2019 - voted 71st in the UK
- The Workplace Wellbeing Charter accredited
- Locality - Royal Liver Building, Goodison Park / New Development, and USM Finch Farm training complex
- Everton FC offers either free gym/ sports facilities or subsidised gym membership
- The club provides support for non-work related training
If the type of inclusive family-orientated workplace that Everton strives to promote sounds like it would complement your aspirations, maybe a career at Everton FC, or their related charity - Everton in the Community - is for you.
