How the Head of People at Fulham F.C. built a compliant and connected organisation

The Challenge

Fulham F.C., London’s oldest professional football club, expanded into a Premier League mainstay with a complex workforce spanning Craven Cottage, its academy, and charitable foundation. To unify operations across departments, maintain compliance, and preserve its close-knit culture, the club needed a single platform.

The Solution

Fulham deployed Bob to unify teams, centralise data, and simplify compliance management. The platform became a digital hub connecting staff across all areas of the club, while Bob Learning enabled new training requirements tied to Premier League standards.

The Results

Bob enabled Fulham to build a more unified, compliant, and people-first organisation. Through the platform’s community features, employees now feel connected across roles, celebrate milestones, and engage with one another. Bob also helps the club meet strict league requirements for training and safeguarding.

Bob enables us to give people the voice to reach out to other organizations, to share their opinions, and to share their achievements. And that makes everyone feel proud of what we’re doing at Fulham.
