Dundee Football Club announced today that it is hiring a Ticketing & Fan Engagement Manager, a role aimed at increasing ticket sales and strengthening fan connections ahead of the new Premiership season.
What does the role involve?
The manager will oversee all ticketing operations, from pricing strategy to match‑day sales, while also crafting supporter communications and fan‑focused events. Responsibilities include coordinating with marketing, operations, and the football side to ensure every ticket purchase feels like part of the club’s community. The position is commercial‑driven, targeting higher revenue and a smoother supporter journey.
Why is this role vital for Dundee Football Club?
With the club finishing 9th in the Premiership last season – 33 points from 8 wins, 9 draws and 16 losses, and a recent form of WLWWL – there is a clear need to maximise match‑day income. Improving the ticketing experience can help bridge the 37‑point gap to league leaders Heart Of Midlothian and turn the modest 34 goals scored versus 53 conceded into a more competitive edge. A focused fan‑engagement strategy can also boost attendance, which directly impacts the club’s finances.
Who should apply?
The club is looking for an ambitious, supporter‑focused professional with a proven track record in ticketing or commercial sports roles. Candidates must submit a CV and cover letter via email, outlining how they will deliver results for Dundee Football Club. Applications close on Monday 10 August 2026, giving interested parties just over two weeks to respond.
What are the next steps?
Once a shortlist is created, the club will interview candidates to assess their vision for ticketing growth and fan interaction. The successful manager will start before the pre‑season, allowing time to implement new initiatives and align with the coaching staff’s objectives. This timing is crucial as the club prepares for the upcoming campaign, hoping to improve on last season’s 33‑point tally.
How will success be measured?
Key performance indicators will include ticket revenue growth, increased season‑ticket renewals, and higher match‑day attendance figures. The manager will also be judged on fan satisfaction scores and the effectiveness of community events. By delivering on these metrics, the role will directly support Dundee Football Club’s ambition to climb the Premiership table.
