Volunteer Stewards Wanted

Ashton United in the Community is on the lookout for people over 18 years to join the matchday team as stewards on matchdays at Ashton United FC. The role is open to one or more individuals, who will be working as part of the off field team that makes the matchday experience special for people visiting Hurst Cross.

Match stewards play a vital role in ensuring the safety of spectators and visitors to the club on a match day. As a match steward, you are the public face of the club and charity, and will often be the first point of contact with supporters.

Vice Chairman Steve Hobson said, 'The role of stewarding is very important to our club as stewards present a warm welcome to visitors to Hurst Cross as well as having an important matchday safety function. We want volunteers and visitors alike to enjoy the experience '

We are looking for people with the following attributes:
• Friendly, helpful and cheerful disposition.
• Attention to detail and patience.
• Flexible approach to volunteering hours.
• Ability to work to instructions and under pressure.
• Ability to work unsupervised and on own initiative.
• A team player with a ‘can do’ attitude.

Very much a family orientated club, ‘The Robins’ are proud of the partnership that exists between the club and Ashton United in the Community, a registered charity that supports community engagement, and provides for volunteering opportunities for local people through roles within the football club. We are proud that many of our volunteers, having learned new skills and gained experience with the club, have moved from a voluntary role into full time employment elsewhere in the professional game.
