Our Story

Manchester City is an English Premier League club whose roots began in East Manchester. From its first incarnation as St Mark’s West Gorton in 1880, the club became Manchester City FC in 1894. Behind each title lies emotion, moments and memories that resonate with millions of supporters around the world. Manchester City fans are known for their commitment and togetherness, as a Club that fights to the end.

The Role

We are seeking UEFA C (or higher) qualified coaches with a Goalkeeping Qualification, and a proven track record in coaching and developing players of varying ages and abilities. The role involves preparing, delivering, and reviewing goalkeeper‑specific sessions in Manchester at the City Football Academy, as part of Manchester City Football Education.

Goalkeeper coaches who are confident leading sessions for outfield players are also encouraged to apply. This position involves coaching player, team, and coach development programmes, primarily on the pitch, with some sessions delivered in the classroom for both UK and international participants.

The role offers full training and development in the MCFC coaching methodology and development pathways, along with potential career opportunities both in the UK and internationally within the organisation.

While this role is offered on a casual basis, it provides genuine pathways for progression — many of our part‑time and full‑time coaching roles are filled from our internal and casual coaching pool.

This experience can open doors to future opportunities across our Pay‑to‑Play programmes in the UK and UAE, as well as within our partner schools worldwide. You may also have the chance to travel internationally for short‑term projects on behalf of our club partners.

Our casual coaching contracts include a competitive rate of pay, flexible working arrangements, and the chance to learn from some of the best goalkeeper coaches in the industry.

Your Impact

• Plan, prepare, and deliver goalkeeper sessions aligned with the MCFC curriculum and methodology.
• Create a positive, professional learning environment that engages and inspires players.
• Maintain a high standard of delivery and ensure positive player and parent feedback through quality assurance.
• Act as a positive role model and ambassador for Manchester City FC, upholding the Club’s values on and off the field.
• Work both independently and collaboratively as part of the coaching team to ensure a positive experience for all participants.
