Head of Partnerships

~4h a week. Volunteer and unpaid.

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

Twenty-five people pay for this club themselves and we have never had a sponsor. We are looking for someone to open that from zero and measure everything against one thing: how much of the player fee each deal takes off.

What the role is

Find brands, pitch them, close them, and keep the relationship alive afterwards.
Report real results back to each sponsor, with numbers.
Work against one metric: how much of the player fee each deal takes off.
Own the pipeline end to end. Nobody is going to hand you leads.

Who this is for

You are comfortable asking strangers for money.
You can go months without a close and keep going.
You listen before you present.
You do not promise something the club cannot deliver in order to get a yes.

How we would know it is working

Meetings booked with brands, and how much of the player fee your deals take off.

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.
