Careers Service
We all know that looking for a full-time job is like a full-time job in itself. With the fact that job seeking is becoming increasingly more competitive, we try to help make the transition from full-time studies to employment as smooth as possible. Our alumni can continue to access career services when seeking advice on CVs, cover letters, interview techniques and more.
The UCFB Employability and Career Planning team continue to send graduate roles and exclusive sports job opportunities to our alumni. We are devoted to trying to find our students their dream job in the football and sporty industry and aim to do so.
To enquire about any of the above please email alumni@ucfb.com with your full name, email, year of graduation and the benefit that you are interested in.
You can also join our UCFB Alumni Network on LinkedIn for the latest job posts in football and sports.

We’ve got a family of UCFB graduates here. It’s something we look at when we’re hiring for roles across the club. It’s that passion that carries when someone has UCFB on their CV. You know they’re going to give everything.

Our Pastoral
Alumni Service
The pastoral alumni service provides advice and guidance for students for up to 12 months after leaving UCFB, as well as providing intermediary support for those students who have decided to suspend their studies but are planning to return to UCFB.
This service allows for a transition period for students to change support services as it is difficult to effectively manage this transition at the end of the third year study due to exam/coursework pressures.
In addition, students can benefit from extended access to the careers service and activities, alumni student events and support moving into the world of work for students with additional needs. This service can be accessed face-to-face, over email and over the telephone.
Experience our
Global Sports Summits
As a graduate, you can continue to attend our Global Sports Summits, delivered with our partners GIS. If you did not get the opportunity to attend a Summit when you were studying, or you would like to join another Summit, your alumni benefits provide you with the opportunity to do so.
Our Summits bringing together UCFB and GIS students, alumni and leading sports industry professionals in some of the most advanced sports and entertainment venues in the world.
Natalie Sawyer
There are a lot of people who do their jobs on a daily basis who don’t love it. Ultimately, working in football should be your passion, and to say you work while it’s a passion of yours – I think we’re very lucky.
