We consider the welfare of all those working at Wembley Stadium to be of the utmost importance. As part of this, and in line with our duty of care under health and safety legislation, including the Control of Noise at Work Regulations 2005, we want to ensure that all staff working as part of the Concert season are suitably protected.
During this season, the Stadium Bowl becomes a designated hearing protection zone during sound checks, rehearsals and the live show. Anybody working within the Stadium bowl, therefore, could be subject to noise levels exceeding the daily limit set at 85dB(A), and by law, this means that ear protection must be provided, and it must be worn. Staff should ensure that they have been provided with hearing protection, and they have a responsibility to ensure that they are wearing this properly and at all times when they are within these hearing protection areas.

ABOUT US

The Football Association [The FA] is the not-for-profit governing body of football in England. It is responsible for promoting and developing every level of the game, from grassroots through to the professional game, and generates significant revenue to support investment into English football each year.
The FA oversees England international teams across men’s, women’s, youth and disability football, as well as running the National League System and FA Competitions including the Emirates FA Cup, and the Adobe Women’s FA Cup, and the world-class facilities of Wembley Stadium and St. George’s Park, all with a purpose to inspire positive change through football.
Our game can tackle some of society’s core challenges. It can bring communities together, nationally and locally. It can be a platform for inclusion, ensuring there is a place for all. It can get people active and promote wellbeing often at a time when we need it most. With UEFA EURO 2028 – hosted in the UK and Ireland – on the horizon, we have an incredible opportunity to transform football across the country.
Now is the time to inspire positive change.
We currently work within a hybrid working model whereby the expectation is to work from your contractual location for part of the week, and as and when required by the team. The remaining days can be worked remotely. We will continue to monitor this model, and it may be adjusted in future if deemed necessary.
Your contract with The FA will specify a fixed location of Wembley Stadium or St. George’s Park unless the role is advertised as a homebased contract. The contractual location of this role can be found at the top of this advert on our FA vacancy page.
