The Role

A new and exciting opportunity has become available for a First Team Goalkeeping Assistant and Transition Coach to join us at Burnley Football Club. You’ll play a key role in supporting the Club’s ongoing development and helping us deliver a first-class experience for players, staff, and supporters.

About You

The ideal candidate will have experience in the development of players within the Professional Development Phase to promote through to the first team. The role also supports the first team’s coaching staff as well as providing the lead link for goalkeeping in the Academy.

You will also need to have a flexible approach to work and be able to work evenings and weekends.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
