Job Purpose:

As Director of Sales – Central & Eastern Europe at Stats Perform, you will be responsible for driving new business development, revenue growth and strategic commercial partnerships across the professional sports ecosystem, with a primary focus on leagues, federations and clubs.

Leveraging Stats Perform's world-leading Opta data, advanced analytics and technology solutions, you will identify and convert new commercial opportunities across Team Performance, Media and related technology products, while developing and expanding existing strategic relationships.

This is a hands-on, revenue-generating sales role requiring a strong industry network, an entrepreneurial mindset and the ability to independently manage complex sales cycles from initial engagement through negotiation and successful deal closure.

Working closely with regional leadership and cross-functional teams, you will play a key role in expanding Stats Perform's commercial footprint across Central & Eastern Europe.

Responsibilities:

  • New Business Development: Proactively identify, develop and close new commercial opportunities with professional football clubs, leagues, federations and other relevant stakeholders across Central & Eastern Europe.
  • Revenue Ownership: Take direct accountability for individual sales targets, delivering measurable revenue growth through new customer acquisition, strategic upselling and expansion opportunities.
  • Strategic Relationship Management: Build and leverage strong relationships with senior executives, sporting directors, technical departments and commercial decision-makers to create sustainable business opportunities.
  • Full Sales Cycle Management: Independently manage complex, multi-stakeholder sales processes, including prospecting, qualification, solution positioning, commercial negotiations and contract closure.
  • Market & Territory Development: Develop and execute a structured territory sales strategy, prioritising high-potential markets, accounts and opportunities to maximise commercial impact.
  • Consultative Solution Selling: Position Stats Perform's Opta data, analytics and technology solutions as strategic business enablers, translating customer requirements into compelling commercial propositions.
  • Pipeline Generation & Forecasting: Build and maintain a healthy, qualified sales pipeline, ensuring accurate forecasting, disciplined CRM management and consistent progress towards revenue targets.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with Product, Customer Success, Operations, Legal and regional commercial leadership to develop competitive proposals and deliver successful customer outcomes.
  • Industry Representation: Represent Stats Perform at relevant industry events, conferences and customer meetings, strengthening the company's position within the European football ecosystem.
  • Travel: Willingness to travel regularly across the assigned territory, approximately 30%.

Required Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's degree in Business, Sports Management, Marketing or a related field, or equivalent relevant professional experience.
  • 7+ years of relevant experience in B2B sales, business development or strategic commercial partnerships, ideally within the professional sports, sports technology, data or analytics industry.
  • Established professional network within European football, particularly among clubs, leagues, federations and relevant senior decision-makers.
  • Demonstrated ability to originate, develop, negotiate and successfully close complex B2B commercial agreements.
  • Proven experience managing individual revenue targets, building qualified sales pipelines and delivering measurable commercial results.
  • Strong understanding of the professional football ecosystem, including the commercial and operational requirements of clubs, leagues and federations.
  • Experience with consultative and solution-based selling, ideally involving sports data, performance analytics, video technology or related digital products.
  • Excellent communication, presentation and negotiation skills, with the ability to engage effectively with senior executives and technical stakeholders.
  • Proficiency in Salesforce or comparable CRM platforms.
  • Fluency in English; additional Central or Eastern European languages are considered an advantage.

Desired Qualifications:

  • Existing relationships with senior stakeholders across the Central & Eastern European football ecosystem.
  • Experience commercialising performance data, scouting solutions, sports analytics, video platforms or media-related products.
  • Understanding of official data partnerships, sports rights and the evolving commercial landscape of professional football.
  • Entrepreneurial mindset with the ability to identify new market opportunities and develop innovative commercial approaches.
