About Baguley Athletic Football Club
Baguley Athletic FC is an ambitious, fast-growing grassroots football club rooted in the heart of Wythenshawe. From expanding our senior and youth setup to launching our Women’s team and Little Kix Soccer School, we are building a club that truly belongs to its community.
We believe grassroots sport deserves high-quality digital media. We’re seeking a passionate, creative Volunteer Social Media Manager based in Greater Manchester to own our digital brand, build our online community, and bring our club’s story to life across social media.

- Maintain Posting Consistency: Ensure regular, high-quality output across all core channels (Instagram, X, Facebook, and LinkedIn).
- Creative Campaign Development: Pitch and execute engaging content series—from spotlighting player sponsors and volunteer profiles to promoting community grant drives and club initiatives.
