Leichhardt Saints FC is inviting applications for the position of Club Administrator / Secretary ahead of the 2027 season.
This is an exciting opportunity for an organised and personable administrator to keep the operations running smoothly across one of Inner West Sydney’s largest community football clubs, supporting over 1,200 players from MiniRoos through to Over 55s.
About the role
You will be the key go-to contact for players, coaches, committee members, Inner West Council, and Football Canterbury. The role focuses on:
-
Operations & Matchdays: Driving annual calendar activities, including coordinating home fields, matchday logistics, and ground duty volunteers.
-
Communications: Managing all main season communications and acting as the primary first point of contact for club enquiries.
-
Digital Media: Keeping the club website, Mailchimp email newsletters, and social media channels (Facebook and Instagram) up to date.
-
Governance & Admin: Assisting committee members with governance, record keeping, and general administrative support.
-
Projects & Events: Supporting grant applications, sponsor liaisons, and major club events throughout the year.
The engagement
This is a casual role remunerated at $40/hour (all-up) + superannuation. Time commitment averages 50 to 100 hours per month across the season. Hours flex naturally with the club calendar – quieter over the summer months and busiest during pre-season and early competition phases (March–April).
What we’re looking for
-
Exceptional communication skills and strong organisational ability
-
Comfort using digital tools including MailChimp, website CMS platforms, and social media scheduling tools
-
Ability to manage variable seasonal hours
-
Previous experience in sports administration or community sports clubs is highly regarded
-
Current Working with Children Check (WWCC), or willingness to obtain one prior to commencement
