Editorial Content Executive

Job Location: Flexible across our Central London office, Selhurst Park, and Training Ground

Contract Type: Full-time

Deadline: 22nd November 2026

Who We Are

We are Crystal Palace Football Club, a Premier League Football Club with more than 160 years of proud history. Spread across three different sites - brand new main offices at Selhurst Park Stadium, our London office, and our Training Ground/Academy, we offer the best atmosphere and culture for our fans and our employees.

We strive for excellence in the workplace with a philosophy of high standards, professionalism, and a strong work ethic from our employees. We are constantly trying to grow, diversify and build with not only our team on the pitch, but also our team in the offices and on the ground.

About This Role

The Editorial Content Executive is responsible for producing written content output across the club’s digital estate (cpfc.co.uk and the Official Palace App) and matchday programme.

The successful candidate will work closely with the Editorial Manager and wider marketing and comms department, and will deliver best-in-class storytelling that inspires, informs and connects with our supporters all around the world, while working at pace, and with sensitivity and uncompromising attention to detail.

The successful candidate will be expected to produce a range of written articles for our digital channels as well as oversee and co-ordinate the production of our matchday programmes, commissioning and editing guest/freelance contributions.

The individual will develop effective working relationships across club teams (Men’s, Women’s, Academy teams), while supporting colleagues across the club in the football department, marketing, retail, ticketing, commercial, premium hospitality, and operations with their communication requirements.

Based primarily in our Central London office, but with the flexibility to travel to Selhurst Park and our training facilities in Beckenham as the role demands, the successful candidate will be expected to work during the week, and approximately half of our Men’s first-team domestic matchdays, plus European matchdays (with subsequent lieu days to be agreed with the Editorial Manager).
