Premier League Stadium Fund Technical Executive
The role is home-based, with regular travel to sites and facilities. Occasional travel to further locations and our main office at Wembley Stadium may be required to support business needs.
We currently have a vacancy in the Premier League Stadium Fund for a Technical Executive to support the Stadium Accreditation Programme and to support the assessment of applications to the Premier League Stadium Fund.
Premier League Stadium Fund
The Premier League Stadium Fund (PLSF) provides grants to improve stadium facilities for players, supporters, and officials. Supporting over 1,000 clubs, it aids teams in the National League System (Steps 1-6), Women’s Football Pyramid (Tiers 1-4), and newly promoted EFL clubs.
Through its Stadium Accreditation Programme, PLSF collects facility data for The FA, ensuring targeted investment. This digital process helps clubs track required works and report improvements. By funding upgrades, PLSF helps non-league and women’s clubs meet standards, avoid relegation, secure promotion, and enhance financial sustainability and matchday experiences.
Football Foundation
Whilst the Technical Executive will be responsible for the successful delivery of the Premier League Stadium Fund, they will be employed by the Football Foundation, and therefore it’s important that they understand the wider context – in terms of what we do and how we go about it.
The Football Foundation transforms lives and communities by creating great places to play. As an independent charity, we work in partnership with the Premier League, The FA, and Sport England to invest in community sports facilities.

We’re looking for enthusiastic individuals eager to develop professionally. A qualification in a construction field (Level 4 HNC or HND minimum) is required. You don’t need a passion for football or in-depth knowledge of the football pyramid—your technical or construction background is what matters most. Successful applicants will gain hands-on experience in grant management and technical processes while working with an experienced team. Over time, you'll manage your own portfolio of clubs, guiding them to meet Stadium Accreditation requirements on schedule.
What are we looking for?
You’ll need an HNC/HND (Level 4/5) in a construction-related field and some experience on building sites, with knowledge of construction processes and quality standards. Understanding the FA’s league structures is desirable but not essential. We support team development and progression. To be eligible for promotion to a Technical Manager role, a degree in a construction-related field is required. With the right degree, we aim to prepare you for promotion within two to three years.You’ll need strong people skills to engage and motivate others while managing projects from start to finish. Excellent organisation is essential, balancing multiple tasks, prioritising, and meeting deadlines without compromising quality.

You’ll start with 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays (increasing after 2 years), and additional time off for volunteering.
