Vacancy: Commercial Manager

Vacancy: Commercial Manager

Liam Ryder13 Apr - 07:30

We are seeking a driven and commercially minded individual to join our club as a Commercial Manager.

This is a key role focused on generating revenue and building strong relationships to support both the financial sustainability of the club and its on-field success.

About the Role
Reporting to the Board of Directors, you will take ownership of the club’s commercial activities, with a particular focus on revenue generation and partnership development.

This is a voluntary, flexible position, ideal for someone looking to make a meaningful impact within a sporting environment.

Key Responsibilities

  • Sponsorship Sales: Identify, secure, negotiate, and manage sponsorship opportunities, including shirt sponsors, stand sponsorships, and stadium advertising boards.
  • Matchday Hospitality: Coordinate and sell matchday hospitality packages, including VIP experiences and individual game offerings.
  • Partnerships & Events: Build relationships with local businesses and develop non-matchday revenue opportunities such as events (e.g. sportsman’s dinners, quiz nights).

Key Objectives

  • Maximise off-field income to support on-field performance
  • Ensure all commercial activity aligns with regulatory and operational requirements

Working Hours
This role offers flexibility but will require availability during evenings and weekends to cover home matches and key events.

Time Commitment
While the position is voluntary, it is an important and results-driven role so so strong commitment is required.

Who We’re Looking For

  • A proactive and motivated individual with strong commercial awareness
  • Excellent communication and relationship-building skills
  • Experience in sales, partnerships, or event management is desirable
  • Passion for sport and community engagement is a plus

If you’re enthusiastic about making a tangible impact and helping drive the club forward commercially, we’d love to hear from you. Please email info@whitbytownfc.com with details of your previous experience and why you feel you'd be a good fit for this role.
