Brentford FC are seeking a Club Journalist to join the Communications department.
We are enjoying the most exciting period in our history and we’re looking for an accomplished writer to join our team and tell our story. From long-form player features to news pieces and match reports, you must have a flair for writing, a meticulous eye for detail and a strong editorial instinct.
Based within the Football Communications department at our Jersey Road Training Ground, you will embrace the Club’s values and have the confidence to connect with our players and coaching staff. Your deep understanding of the Club and the community will be evident in the content you produce.
Reporting to the Football Communications Manager, this role will require extensive UK travel (including all First Team fixtures) and flexibility around working hours. The successful candidate will have demonstrable experience of providing written content for a variety of platforms, which is error-free and at good speed, and experience of working within a communications team. Knowledge of social media platforms and understanding of how to use content to best effect on different channels is also key.
Previous experience of a similar role at a professional football club or another sports organisation is preferable, but not essential, as is an understanding of website content management system and proficiency in using photo editing software.
