The Sport Industry brings the UK together through a series of world-class events from across the British and international sporting landscape. It is also a rapidly changing industry with so many sports now being played and viewed on a global scale, creating significant opportunities for commercial activities.

The sporting landscape has also drastically changed over the last 15 years with the proliferation of digital media and the various devices that can now view sport in a live environment - through digital television, online streaming, via tablet and mobile devices. In addition, the expansion of coverage across women's sports has created even further participation and viewing opportunities. Competition has increased and delivering to this level of demand can prove challenging for many businesses in the sporting sector.

We understand the need for sporting organisations to recruit market leading business professionals who are experts in dealing with the fast and dynamic pace of the modern competitive sports market. We know you need a high calibre individual who is focused on the customer need, but also has the vision and strategic insight to deliver the right commercial opportunities.

We have substantial experience in this sector, and some of the successful assignments we have completed include:

  • Chairperson
  • Chief Commercial Officer
  • Sales & Marketing Director
  • Head of Sports Science
  • CONSULTANT SPOTLIGHT
