Join the Northern Premier League at a Pivotal Moment – Be Part of the Game-Changing Team!

Are you passionate about football and ready to play a central role in the growth of one of the country's most historic and competitive leagues? The Northern Premier League (NPL) is entering an exciting new phase – and we're looking for a dedicated, detail-oriented, and proactive individual to join our team as Player Registration & Compliance Officer.

As a key member of our Officer team, you'll be at the heart of League operations, helping to power the day-to-day activity that keeps our clubs moving and matchdays running smoothly. Reporting directly to the CEO, this is far more than an admin role – it's an opportunity to shape how we support clubs across the League and build strong relationships within the football community.

What You'll Be Doing

You'll be the go-to expert on player registrations, ensuring full compliance with FA rules and helping clubs navigate key processes with confidence. Your daily work will include:

• Communicating with clubs and the FA, responding to registration queries, and processing matchday documentation
• Managing the entire player registration process via FA systems like iFAS
• Compiling and distributing fixtures – ensuring clubs and fans get the info they need
• Monitoring compliance with Stadium Accreditation and club licensing requirements
• Overseeing important admin tasks such as Form D, League membership forms, and Financial Reporting Initiative returns
  
  

What We're Looking For

We need someone who's confident, professional, and ready to handle the pressures of non-league football. You'll bring:

• A strong working knowledge of League and FA rules (especially those related to player registrations)
• Proven ability using FA digital systems – including iFAS
• Advanced Microsoft Word and Excel skills, plus confidence using Google Maps
• A blend of empathy and authority – you'll support club staff while upholding rules with consistency and fairness
• Flexibility – this is not a 9-to-5 job. Some evening and weekend work will be necessary
  
  

Other Essentials

• The role is home-based but will require travel to League meetings and events
• A full UK driving licence and access to your own vehicle is essential
  
  

Please apply with your up to date C.V. & covering letter to detailing your relevant experience & the attributes and qualities that you feel you can offer. (Closing date for the role is 11th June)
