We compete at the highest levels of football on a global stage whilst keeping our Sussex community spirit. Our vision is to be a top ten Premier League club and a top four Women’s Super League club.

The 2023/24 season is the start of new adventures, our first in European football and we would love for you to be part of our journey.
Join us in the Women’s Super League and category 1 academy to support with all operational needs

But we will give you everything you need to succeed (except for drive, determination and motivation – which you will need to bring with you!).
You will be required to attend all home and away fixtures so we need someone who has a flexible approach to their working hours, to include evenings and weekends.
