Gateshead seeks new first-team manager following ownership change

Summary

Gateshead FC is looking for a new first-team manager after the recent takeover by American private investment company Flacks Group. The club, currently at the bottom of the National League with only four points from 45 possible, is inviting applications due to their difficult situation. They have been without a permanent manager since Lee Cattermole's departure last month, with Ben Clark currently interim manager. Prospective applicants must have a UEFA A licence and relevant coaching experience, with a covering letter detailing their coaching philosophy. The club emphasizes its progressive nature and strong ambitions despite current challenges.
