Head of Marketing

~5h a week. Volunteer and unpaid. Applications close 18 September.

Who we are

Delta FC is a football club in Madrid. It was founded in 2024, after a university pulled its funding and the team decided to keep going anyway. This is our first season of official, federated football.

Twelve nationalities, playing in English. Twenty-five players paying for the whole thing out of their own pockets. Over a million views in six months, with nobody managing any of it.

We are now rebuilding the club from the inside. The aim is to run the most professional amateur club we can: written roles, real ownership of an area, one number per area, and a structure that does not fall over when one person is away.

We have no budget and no staff. What we do have is young people who are good at something and want a real place to use it. Nobody here is paid. Everyone is here for the love of the game.

What we are looking for

This club has an audience and nobody who owns it. There is no calendar, nobody deciding what Delta says or what it sounds like, and no line connecting what we publish to a member signing up or a sponsor answering an email. We are looking for someone to take the club's voice from zero and be accountable for where the attention ends up.

What the role is

• Own the brand. How Delta looks, sounds and shows up, on the pitch and everywhere else.
• Run the content calendar across the season: what goes out, when, on which channel, and who makes it.
• Brief the Art Director and the people making content. You decide what gets made. They decide how it looks.
• Turn attention into something usable: followers into members, reach into a page of a sponsorship deck, a good match into an application.
• Own the channels end to end. Nobody is going to hand you a calendar.

Who this is for

• You have an opinion about what this club should sound like, and you can defend it in a room.
• You publish on Tuesday what happened on Sunday, instead of waiting for something perfect that never ships.
• You have run an account, a campaign or a brand that people outside your own friends actually saw.
• You can brief a creative person without doing their job for them, and you can say no to work that is off-brand.
• You read a number and change what you do next because of it.

How we would know it is working

Not views. New members, sponsor leads and applications that came from something we published.

This is the one thing you report each week, without anyone asking.

Conditions that apply to every role

Unpaid and volunteer. Delta is a non-profit association. Every person in the club, from the president down, works on it for free. We say it in the first paragraph rather than the last.
Real hours. The number on each role is what the job actually takes. If it does not fit your term, say so now rather than in November.
You own the area. Not a task inside someone else's project. You decide how the work gets done and nobody reviews it piece by piece. We agree the what once a cycle. The how is yours.
One thing you report each week. Every role has a single thing it keeps an eye on, and you send it over once a week without anyone asking. While it looks healthy, nobody comes to check on you. That is what replaces supervision in a club that has none.

What you get

Your own area. Not a task inside someone else's project.
A real case, not a line on a CV. At the end of the season you have something you built, with numbers attached, that you can walk someone through in an interview.
A seat where decisions happen. You work directly with the people running the club. There is no layer between you and the person who decides.
University paperwork and a reference. Some programmes recognise work with a non-profit association. We do not control that, but we will sign whatever your university needs and give you a reference at the end.

This is not for you if

You want the title more than the work. It shows within a month and it costs the club a season.
You need someone to tell you what to do this week. There is nobody here to write that list.
You are expecting to be paid. Nobody here is, including the president.
