Overview
Hartlepool United Football Club is a professional association football club based in the North–East of England. After highly successful 2020/21 saw the team win promotion from the National League, 2021/22 will see the club return to the English Football League following a short 4–year absence. The club was purchased by Chairman Raj Singh in 2017 and since then extensive progress has been made both in terms of restoring financial viability to club (irrespective of on–field success) and exploring longer term commercial business plans with the ultimate aspiration to deliver a new stadium development at Victoria Park alongside further promotions within the EFL. The position of Chief Executive Officer is a newly created role as the club looks to build on recent successes and represents an incredible opportunity for the correct candidate to join that journey and to help shape the next chapter in the Club's remarkable history.
