#346: Working in Football Partnerships – From Collingwood FC to Williamstown FC with Luke Attard

Meet Luke Attard, the ex-Collingwood FC professional and now Head of Commercial & Partnerships at Williamstown Football Club.

Luke started his career in sport volunteering at his local sports club alongside a year in the AFL SportsReady program. In 2018 his break in the industry came via Collingwood Football Club working in the membership team where he started to grow a passion for partnerships and sales.

Luke’s hunger for success and eagerness to learn saw him transition into the partnerships team at the Pies followed by sales roles outside of sport and then returning to industry where he now heads up the commercial program at Williamstown Football Club.

Luke is quickly becoming a well respected, leading commercial operator in sport and his journey provides a clear blueprint on how to tackle your studies and early professional life to setup your career for success.
