  • Help maintain efficient systems and processes across the Partnerships team.

  • Coordinate meetings, lunches, events and partner-facing activities.

  • Manage travel arrangements, including flights, accommodation and itineraries.

  • Assist with internal team organisation, diary coordination and logistics.

  • Support partner experiences and hospitality where required.

  • Highly organised with excellent attention to detail.

  • Strong time management skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities.

  • A proactive attitude with a willingness to learn and take ownership.

  • Experience using CRM systems such as Monday.com or similar platforms.

  • Experience supporting events, shoots or client-facing activities.

  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.

  • A degree or equivalent qualification is welcomed but not essential - we are more interested in your organisation, attitude and potential.

Why join Goalhanger?

  • A creative, collaborative, close-knit team that genuinely cares about its work and each other.

  • Competitive salary and benefits, plus opportunities for growth within the role as our team and content portfolio expand.

  • A working environment that values curiosity, autonomy, humour, delivery and purpose.
