Tooting Bec FC Women – First Team
Level
Tier 6 of the women’s football pyramid
Commitment
Wednesday evening training and Sunday matches
About the role
Tooting Bec FC Women are looking for an enthusiastic and committed First Team Assistant Manager to join our existing management team. Our First Team currently competes at Tier 6 of the women’s football pyramid, and we are looking for someone to work closely alongside our First Team Manager as their No.2, supporting across training, matchdays, team selection and tactical planning.
You’ll join an established management team consisting of a First Team Manager, First Team Coach and Goalkeeper Coach. This role is therefore less about simply delivering coaching sessions and more about providing the Manager with another trusted footballing perspective – contributing ideas, discussing selection and tactics, helping make decisions on matchdays and being able to step up and lead the team when required.
This is a great opportunity for someone looking to gain experience within a competitive Tier 6 environment and play an important role within an ambitious and growing women’s football programme.
What we’re looking for
We’re looking for someone who:
- Can work closely with the First Team Manager and become a trusted No.2 within the management team
- Is confident contributing to discussions around team selection, formations, tactics and game plans
- Can provide constructive ideas, opinions and a different perspective when making footballing decisions
- Is comfortable taking an active role on matchdays, both before and during games
- Can support the planning and delivery of training sessions alongside the existing coaching team
- Is confident communicating with and motivating players in a competitive first-team environment
- Is able to deputise for the First Team Manager and lead the team when required
- Is passionate about women’s football and creating a positive, ambitious and player-focused environment
- Can commit to Wednesday evening training and Sunday fixtures, both home and away
- Is organised, reliable and able to communicate effectively with players, coaches and the wider club
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

What we can offer
- The opportunity to work within a competitive Tier 6 women’s football environment
- A meaningful role within the First Team management and decision-making structure
- The opportunity to work closely with and learn alongside an established coaching team
- Experience of team selection, tactical planning, match preparation and in-game management
- Opportunities to take responsibility and lead the First Team when required
- Support in developing your coaching qualifications and football management experience
- The opportunity to be part of a growing and ambitious women’s football programme
- A welcoming, collaborative and player-focused club environment
