About STATSports:

Since 2008, we’ve grown from humble beginnings into the global leader in GPS performance tracking and analysis, trusted by the world’s biggest clubs, leagues, and athletes. Our technology sits at the intersection of hardware, software, and sport, helping teams optimise performance, reduce injury risk, and unlock previously impossible insights.

As part of our team, you will work with current champions and help mould future champions, playing a vital role in some of the greatest sporting moments in history. And you’ll have fun doing it!

Innovation has always driven us forward, and it’s our people who make that happen.

The opportunity:

We are looking for a Business Development Executive to join our Pre-Elite sales team, focused on accelerating our growth in Spain and throughout Europe across semi-professional and amateur sports clubs. In this dynamic, remote role, you will join a close-knit team to develop targeted sales strategies, attract new clients, and build lasting relationships within your designated territory.

Working collaboratively across teams, you will champion our Sonra Lite and Athlete Series product lines. This role requires flexibility for 20–25% travel, including occasional evening and weekend visits to clubs, schools, and sporting organisations to meet business needs and drive expansion.

If you’re competitive, target-driven, passionate about sport, and love being close to the product, this role will suit you.

What you’ll be doing:

• Source new sales opportunities and close sales to consistently hit and exceed targets across Spain and Europe.

• Play a key role in generating leads, qualifying prospects, and managing the sales pipeline for products and services.

• Serve as the Sonra Lite sales specialist, actively researching market competition and identifying commercial opportunities.

• Travel (approx. 20–25%) to attend clubs, schools, and prospective clients, occasionally during evenings and weekends.

• Collaborate with sales, marketing, and customer operations teams to help develop and execute the Athlete Series sales drive.

• Build and nurture long‑term relationships with key decision‑makers across semi‑professional and grassroots sports organisations.

What we’re looking for:

• At least 3 years of experience in a target‑driven direct selling environment, with a proven track record of sales success.

• Hands‑on experience dealing with clients directly and closing deals.

• A full, clean driver’s licence.

• A strong passion for sport and an understanding of the European sporting landscape.

• Computer literacy, including proficiency in Microsoft Excel.

• Experience using CRM platforms (preferably Salesforce).

• The willingness and flexibility to work evenings and weekends when required.

• Fluency in both Spanish and English (written and oral).

Nice to have (but not essential):

• Previous experience selling directly to sports teams, academies, or clubs.

• Previous experience selling sports performance technologies.

What’s in it for you:

• A key sales role expanding global access to world‑leading sports performance technology across Europe

• High visibility and direct influence on the market adoption of Sonra Lite and the Athlete Series

• Autonomy within a remote setup, backed by a collaborative, close‑knit international team

• Exposure to cross‑functional teams spanning marketing, sales, and customer operations

• Opportunities for career progression within a rapidly growing global sports tech brand

• A team culture that values learning, ownership, and shared success

• The chance to see your work directly impact athletes and sports teams at all levels

If you’re passionate about quality and want your work to have a real‑world impact in sport, we’d love to hear from you.

Equal opportunity employer:
