Everton FC: The People’s Club
“Everton is affectionately known as The People’s Club. It’s a fantastic moniker that perfectly sums up our values and acts as the standard for us to live up to as a people and culture team,” says Kim Healey, Chief People and Culture Officer at Everton Football Club Everton Football Club (FC) has been named one of the best places to work in the UK for five years running, and recognised as one of the fairest employers in the North West, following its inclusion on Liverpool City Region’s Fair Employment Charter. Kim Healey, Chief People and Culture Officer at Everton FC tells us
We are proud to be a Disability Confident Leader and we recently recruited an Equity and Inclusion Lead for Accessibility and Wellbeing. We offer a wealth of health and wellbeing benefits too, but this is very much an overview - our teams are constantly working to make Everton a truly attractive and inclusive place to work.
partners and awareness campaigns, including Her Game Too, Women in Football, Stonewall and No Room For Racism. For our staff, we have created, and are developing, a series of staff networks and educational events that will further reinforce our commitment to true equality and inclusion at Everton. Our goals for this year One of our goals for 2023 is to build on the ‘aspiring’ status we were awarded on induction to the Liverpool City Region’s inaugural Fair Employment Charter, and further our reputation as one of the fairest and most conscientious employers in our city and the wider region. More broadly, we will continue our focus on evolving our staff offering and continuing to shape our people and culture operations in advance of the move to our stadium on the banks of the River Mersey – the biggest project in the Club’s history and one that will deliver huge public benefits for North Liverpool, our City Region and the UK.
Managing a HR operation across multiple sites
Football is Everton’s primary output but within the people and culture team, we also look after an award- winning charity, a Free School and a Football College. Those teams are based at multiple sites across Merseyside and Cheshire, and we have many staff that are working from home two days a week. Managing that HR operation and ensuring we are successfully and fairly catering for the needs of staff across all our sites is a huge challenge in itself. Looking ahead, our employee numbers are set to grow as we prepare to move to our new 52,888 capacity stadium. We want to make sure we are recruiting and retaining the very best talents to help us deliver, while creating pathways for all our staff to develop and grow. Tackling equality and inclusion Equality and inclusion is an integral part of our culture at Everton. In 2018, we launched All Together Now, a campaign that outlines our commitment to make Everton a place where everyone feels respected, celebrated and empowered, and that they belong.
