AFLW Senior Coach - Port Adelaide Football Club

2 hours ago Australia
Application Deadline - 16th Feb 2026 @ 12:00 am (GMT)

Reporting to the AFLW Head of Football, you'll lead an exciting playing group with genuine premiership potential. This isn't just another coaching role – it's a chance to build your legacy with an AFLW club that knows how to win and isn't afraid to chase greatness.

You'll work with a talented list, elite facilities at Allan Scott Power Headquarters, and the backing of one of Australia's most passionate football communities. The foundations are there. The vision is clear. Now we need the right leader to bring it all together.

What You'll Bring to the Role

Your Vision & Strategic Thinking

You'll develop a compelling 3-year vision that aligns with our 'Chasing Greatness' strategy. You know how to define success across multiple timeframes and build genuine buy-in from players and staff. You understand that the best visions aren't created in isolation – they're co-created through inclusive, collaborative processes that give everyone ownership of where we're headed.

Your Coaching Excellence

You live and breathe elite football. From training design to game-day tactics, you know how to maximise what you've got and adapt to the unique rhythms of AFLW – the constrained contact time, the part-time athletes managing work and study, the evolving competition standards. You're not just implementing a game plan; you're developing players' fundamental skills and football intelligence in ways that stick.
