Role Vacancies

Hampshire Cricket Board is growing its team as we embark on an exciting new chapter with our four-year strategy, Breaking Boundaries.

Guided by our mission to inspire, empower and connect communities through cricket, we are committed to making the game more inclusive, inviting and accessible to all.

To support this ambition, we are recruiting two new roles.  One will play a vital part in strengthening and supporting local cricket clubs, and the other will deliver high-quality cricket sessions within our urban communities. These positions will sit at the heart of our work, helping us build lasting relationships, remove barriers to participation, and create meaningful opportunities for people of all ages and backgrounds to engage with the game.

We are looking for enthusiastic, people-focused individuals who are passionate about cricket and its power to make a positive difference. You will be motivated, proactive and comfortable working independently as well as part of a wider team. Successful candidates will have strong communication skills, a genuine commitment to inclusion and community engagement, and the drive to build trusted relationships with clubs, partners and participants. Experience working in community sport, education or development roles would be an advantage, but above all we are seeking people who share our values, energy and ambition for growing the game.
