Job description
Ready to make a real impact on the game? The FA is seeking a dynamic Level 2 Referee Coach to join our Football Operations team, where you'll help elevate standards, strengthen our workforce, and ensure a consistent and robust approach to referee development and recruitment.

What will you do?

  • Attend Step 2 fixtures to observe, analyse and report on Referee and Assistant Referee performance, producing objective reports aligned to the Refereeing DNA.
  • Support officials' development across technical, tactical, psychological and behavioural areas.
  • Contribute to succession planning, promotion decisions and longer-term referee development strategy.
  • Assist with training events, workshops and wider CPD activity.
  • Comply with all company policies and procedures to ensure the highest standards of health, safety and well-being can be maintained.
  • As part of The FA's commitment to ensuring a safe environment for everyone in football, successful candidates will be required to complete a DBS check. The level of the check required will be based on the activity of the specific job role. Casual work is conditional upon receipt of a satisfactory DBS check result, which will be fairly considered on a case-by-case basis, in line with legislation and government guidance.

This role is a consultant position that requires weekend and evening availability to attend 37 fixtures over the course of a season.

What You'll Need?

Essential for the role:

  • Extensive experience officiating at Level 2 or above (or equivalent).
  • Strong understanding of The Laws of the Game and referee development pathways.
  • Demonstrated ability to deliver clear, balanced and constructive feedback.
  • Strong communication, interpersonal and organisational skills.
  • Commitment to referee development, equality, diversity and inclusion.
  • Willingness to travel to matches, including evenings and weekends.

Beneficial to have:

  • Coaching qualification (or willingness to work towards).
  • Previous experience coaching or mentoring referees.
  • Experience supporting referees through promotion or performance challenges.

What's in it for you?

We pride ourselves on offering a competitive rate of pay as well as great opportunities to develop and grow in your role.

We are committed to ensuring everyone can flourish in their roles, and by doing this, we offer top-of-the-range facilities across two core business locations. We have unique office spaces under the arch of the iconic Wembley National Stadium, which is the home of English football. We are also delighted to have a world-class Elite Performance Centre, St. George's Park in Staffordshire, which is an exceptional setting to develop and inspire high-performing England teams and leaders.

We are a diverse workplace, aspiring to represent football across the country. The Football Association actively promotes inclusion and diversity, encouraging you to be the best version of yourself at work.

We welcome applications from everyone and are proud to be an equal opportunities employer. If you have any particular requirements in respect of the recruitment or interview process, please mention this during your application.
