Description

Based at Wembley Stadium, the home of football, the London Football Association is responsible for governing, safeguarding, and developing football across the capital.
We were established in 1882 and have an incredibly rich and proud history.

More recently we have been undergoing a period of exciting transformation and modernisation through the delivery of our strategy - Harnessing the Power of Grassroots Football.


At the heart of this strategy is a vision to harness the power of football to enrich more lives in London.

We are very enthusiastic about the wider benefits that football can bring to society, and we know that if we are to have any chance of delivering this vision, we must create the right environments for people to thrive.

The

Investigations Officer is a crucial role in our business, responsible for ensuring there is integrity and fair play across our great game. As the governing body for football in London, it is our duty to ensure that all football played across the capital is a safe, enjoyable, and a positive experience for the many children, young people and adults who regularly play, watch, coach, referee, and volunteer. This is our most important goal and without this foundation in place we are not able to deliver anything else.


You will be joining a diverse and dynamic organisation that cares passionately about the role grassroots football can play to change people's lives.

We value and develop our employees and promote several benefits, to include very flexible working arrangements, numerous staff development and progression opportunities and a generous pension scheme.
