AS Monaco Rugby is increasingly recognised not just for its on-field performance but also for its commitment to supporting players as they build a future beyond sport…
Each year, around ten new athletes join the Principality’s rugby team, many of them young or mid-career professionals who have relocated from abroad. While they bring valuable sporting talent, they often face the daunting task of finding work and settling into a new community – particularly those approaching the end of their professional playing careers who may have known nothing but rugby until now.
To ease this transition, AS Monaco Rugby has put in place a proactive employment support programme. In collaboration with local businesses and partners, the club matches players with job opportunities suited to their skills and aspirations. Profiles are assessed jointly by the coaching staff and club management to identify motivated and reliable candidates. The idea is to anticipate workforce needs in the Principality so that players can be offered roles as they become available, reducing the stress of job hunting while adapting to life off the pitch.
This initiative reflects the values of rugby itself; discipline, teamwork and responsibility, which make players attractive recruits for employers. By facilitating professional integration, AS Monaco Rugby allows its athletes to combine sporting excellence with career development, strengthening both the club and the local community. The goal is clear: to ensure that players succeed on the field and thrive in their professional lives, demonstrating that the club’s commitment to its athletes extends far beyond sport. Interested employers are invited to contact AS Monaco Rugby to discover the diverse profiles currently seeking opportunities.
