About Everton Football Club

Established in 1878, Everton Football Club are a professional football club in Liverpool that compete in the Premier League.

Everton also own Everton in the Community, a registered charity serving the local community, and Everton Free School Trust, a specialist educational and sixth form college.

The Club take immense pride in being called ‘The People’s Club’ and not only look to put their loyal supporters first, but also place huge importance on staff welfare as part of their inclusive family mentality.

Last summer the Club relocated its offices from Goodison Park to new state-of-the-art facilities at the iconic Royal Liver Building, providing staff with a first-class working environment.

In 2016 Everton became only the second Premier League club to be accredited as a Living Wage employer and is one of only four clubs in the league currently Living Wage accredited.

Furthermore, Everton was one of only 14 companies to be invited to become a Principal Partner of the Living Wage Foundation, which allows the Club to help shape the Living Wage movement and have invaluable input into best practices.

Over the last 12 months Everton has introduced a number of employee benefits including enhanced maternity and paternity pay, a staff suggestion scheme, upgraded learning and development programmes, and tangible opportunities for internal progression.
