Team Operations Manager - Everton Women in Burton upon Trent

Who are we:

Everton Football Club is one of world sport\'s most respected and revered names - a by-word for innovation, professionalism and community.

During the course of a glittering history spanning three centuries, the Club has been shaped and guided by its aspirational motto Nil Satis Nisi Optimum - nothing but the best is good enough.

Alongside a Senior Men’s team that has played more games in English football\'s top flight than any other, Everton Women have been a leading light in driving forward the professionalism of the women’s game.

With roots that go back to the mid-1980s, Everton Women were formally established in 1995 and won the English league title just three seasons later.

League runners-up five times in the following decade, the team also won two Women\'s FA Cups and a Women\'s League Cup before proudly becoming one of the eight founder members of the Women\'s Super League in 2011.

In May 2025, it was confirmed that the iconic Goodison Park - Everton\'s main stadium since 1892 - would become the permanent home of Everton Women from the 2025/26 season, signalling the dawn of an exciting new chapter for one of the women\'s game most storied clubs.
