Founded in 2020 by the pairing of an entrepreneur chairman and a Brentford U18s coach, Hammersmith FC Women and Men have taken their respective leagues by storm, with both teams winning the league. In fact, the women did it as invincibles - without losing a single game along the way.

It’s important to note that this is a voluntary role. No one at the club receives a salary. Everyone volunteers out of their love of the beautiful game. So please only apply if you would like to use this as a platform to further your credentials.
 
Having just paraded our trophies around London in an open top bus, it is an exciting time to be speaking to us!
