Member and Fan Services Officer

We’re currently hiring for one full-time position as well as two casual positions. This is a great opportunity to kickstart a career in sport with one of the AFL’s biggest clubs, working in a fast-paced and exciting team.

About the Collingwood Football Club  

Collingwood Football Club (CFC) was founded in 1892.

Local residents, community and business leaders and politicians all hoped that having their own football club could help bring a measure of pride to a downtrodden suburb.

In 2026, CFC is one of the great icons of Australian sport. Our history spans 130 years, 16 premierships and more finals appearances than any other club. Most importantly, Collingwood has grown from being a football club to a sports club with a commitment to our community.
