This is a hands‑on role for someone who takes initiative, identifies content opportunities without being asked and is confident working independently while maintaining high creative and professional standards. No two days are the same. One morning you could be filming first‑team training, the next creating content with club partners, writing a website article or helping cover a sold‑out Sydney Derby at Allianz Stadium. You'll work closely with our wider Content & Marketing team to develop fresh ideas, execute campaigns and ensure Sydney FC continues producing engaging content that reaches supporters across every platform. This role has been designed as a launchpad for the next generation of sports content creators. You'll receive hands‑on experience across elite football, mentorship from the Digital Content Manager and the opportunity to take ownership of major club initiatives.

This is a contract for the 2026/27 season, starting on the 1st October 2026 and running until 31st May 2027.

• Film and edit short‑form content using mobile devices and Adobe Premiere Pro.
• Produce basic social media graphics using Adobe Photoshop from existing club templates.
• Assist in brainstorming creative campaigns and social‑first content ideas.
• Publish and schedule content across Sydney FC's digital platforms.
• Write website articles, news stories and digital copy.
• Engage with supporters through community management across social media platforms.
• Assist with live matchday coverage, including team news, updates, behind‑the‑scenes content and fan engagement.
• Cover the majority of Sydney FC home matches and occasional away fixtures.
• Attend training sessions, media opportunities and club events to create content.

About you

• 1-2 years' experience in digital content creation, social media management, sports marketing, media or a related field.
• Strong understanding of TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Facebook and emerging social media trends.
• Demonstrated experience filming, editing and publishing engaging short‑form video content.
• Intermediate proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite.
• Excellent written communication skills with the ability to create engaging digital copy across multiple platforms.
• Strong organisational and time‑management skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines.
• Ability to work proactively, take initiative and perform effectively with minimal supervision.
• Confidence communicating with players, coaches, partners and stakeholders.
• Ability to work evenings, weekends and public holidays throughout the football season.
• Current unrestricted Australian's driver's licence and reliable access to a vehicle.
