What do our people say about it?

Angelo Rigopoulos, Managing Director of Integrity & Regulatory

When I think where I work, I always have the feeling I have been blessed! Being part of UEFA, where the best football is played and where key decisions for the future of football are taken, is an honour. Long days of hard work are always paid back when the lights of a stadium are on and the UEFA Champions League anthem starts. Because, no matter where in UEFA you work, football comes always first!

Olivier Doglia, Head of Technical Education & Development

It's great to work in football – when your passion can also be your job – because there should be pleasure in whatever you are doing. Football is an environment that is always changing and it gives you the chance to learn and to develop every day.

Catalina Navarro, Head of Events

I am privileged to work at UEFA. It is an inspiring environment where we have the means to create and innovate and where teamwork is essential to achieving the best results. UEFA has given me the opportunity to grow as a person and as a professional. Throughout my time at UEFA, I have had the opportunity to meet extraordinary people from all over Europe, visit several countries and work with different cultures as well as contribute to the organisation of several events ranging from youth tournament to club competition finals. It has been – and continues to be – a colourful and diverse journey.
