Community and Fan Engagement Officer

Community & Fan Engagement Officer Location: Fully remote, with occasional travel to local community football drops Hours: Part-time initially, with room to grow as we do About Found Football Found Football is a non-profit on a simple mission: get more children active by dropping free footballs in the local parks and playing fields that need them most. Our approach is deliberately simple: put a ball at a child's feet and see what happens. No QR codes, no sign-out sheets, no barriers—just pure play. We are building a community around this idea to encourage families to get outside, enjoy their local spaces, and fall in love with the game. The Role We're looking for a friendly, creative Community & Fan Engagement Officer to help us connect with people both online and on the ground. This isn't about managing complex corporate systems—it's about people. You'll be the voice of Found Football, chatting with families at football drops, capturing real stories, keeping our social media vibrant, and helping us spread the word. What You'll Do

• Connect with Communities: Be a warm, welcoming face at our football drops, talk to families, and help organise fun, accessible local activities.
• • Bring Our Socials to Life: Keep the conversation going on Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn. Answer messages, share photos from our drops, and encourage families to post their own stories.
• • Tell Great Stories: Snap photos and quick videos at events to show the real impact a simple football can have on a neighborhood.
• • Help Us Grow: Build friendly relationships with local schools, grassroots clubs, and potential partners or sponsors who want to support what we do.
• • Bring Your Own Ideas: We don't want a robot following instructions. If you think of a cool competition, a new event idea, or a better way to reach kids, we want to hear it! About You You do not need years of experience or a stacked CV to apply. Personality, energy, and a genuine heart for helping kids play matter far more to us. You'll be a great fit if you are:
• Passionate: Excited about football, community, and getting children active.
• • A People Person: Naturally friendly, comfortable chatting with families in person, and great at keeping conversations positive online.
• • Creative & Full of Ideas: Confident using social media, quick to spot a good story, and eager to share new ideas.
• • A Team Player: Reliable, comfortable working independently from home, and ready to roll up your sleeves when event day comes. What Success Looks Like We don't measure success in cold metrics or follower counts. Success to us means more children outside playing, more families sharing their stories, and more footballs in the hands of kids who need them. How to Apply
