Building on the success of the last season’s ‘MyAlbion Internship’, we are thrilled to announce we are going live with recruitment for next season’s intake for our immersive internship programme.

This unique opportunity, which offers the chance to go behind the scenes at a Premier League football club is designed for individuals who have recently finished college and who would prefer not to pursue university. Over a two-year fixed-term contract starting in September 2025, interns will rotate through various departments, gaining experience in both on-pitch and off-pitch operations. For this year’s intake, we will be offering two positions.

As we are based in the Sussex, the successful candidates must reside within a commutable distance of both the American Express Stadium in Brighton and our American Express Elite Football Performance Centre in Lancing.

No prior work experience? No problem! The only requirement is your commitment to fully immerse yourself in this internship. You’ll need to embrace challenges, step outside your comfort zone, learn from our incredible teams and always embody our TEAAM Brighton values. This programme will not only give you invaluable insight into the inner workings of a top tier football club but also help you discover more about yourself whilst building lifelong skills.

Don’t miss your chance to be part of something truly special. Apply today and kick-start your career with MyAlbion Internship!

The fundamentals:

The departmental rotations

Over the course of your two years at the club, the departmental rotations will immerse you in every aspect of an elite high-performance environment. You’ll gain a comprehensive understanding of what happens both on and off the pitch – from connecting with our loyal fans to exploring the operational and business facets of running a Premier League football club.

The mandatory rotational departments will include:

- Coaching

- Sports turf and pitch performance

- Supporter services

- A fourth rotation, tailored to your strengths and interests

In addition to these hands-on experiences, you’ll have the chance to pursue relevant qualifications and will be paired with a mentor from our brilliant management team to guide and support you throughout your journey.

There’s no need to worry if you’re not an expert in any of these areas or unsure about where your passions lie. This internship is designed to help you discover your interests, learn what you do (and don’t) enjoy, and develop invaluable skills that will serve you well in a footballing environment, and beyond.
