Sports can change lives—that’s what we value.

Your Role

We’re looking for a Junior Business Analyst to join our Elite business unit, supporting the continued success of Hudl’s acquisition of scouting rights, strategic partnerships and monetisation. This is an entry-level role, where you’ll report to and work closely with the Director of Rights and Partnerships, playing an important role in acquiring content on a global basis in line with the overarching content strategy. 

This role will include: 

  • Strategic planning. You’ll oversee databases to help identify content and develop a rights acquisition pipeline. 
  • Collaboration. Working closely with the data science team, you’ll assess content and provide standardized acquisition valuations, recommendations and reports to senior management based on performance and analytics. 
  • Contract negotiation. We’ll show you how to steer the ship in the commercial aspects of contracts with global sports rights-holders. You’ll demonstrate first-class relationship management skills with rights-holders, federations and agencies.
Location

We'd like to hire someone for this role who lives near our office in London, Leeds or Barcelona, but we're also open to remote candidates in the United Kingdom or Spain.

Must-Haves
  • Knowledgeable. You have a general understanding of the sports industry.
  • A team player. You can successfully work within teams to collectively deliver exceptional results.
  • Organised. You possess excellent time management skills and naturally work well with strict deadlines.
  • A problem solver. You can deliver creative solutions, but are always on the lookout for new ideas and opportunities to learn and adapt.

  • Passionate about sports. Your work could impact the organisations and games you love. 
  • Negotiation skills You already know how to negotiate the commercial aspects of contracts with international sports rights-holders
Our Role 
  • Champion work-life harmony. We’ll give you the flexibility you need in your work life (e.g., flexible vacation time above any required statutory leave, company-wide holidays and timeout (meeting-free) days, remote work options and more) so you can enjoy your personal life too.
  • Guarantee autonomy. We have an open, honest culture and we trust our people from day one. Your team will support you, but you’ll own your work and have the agency to try new ideas.
  • Encourage career growth. We’re lifelong learners who encourage professional development. We’ll give you tons of resources and opportunities to keep growing.
  • Provide an environment to help you succeed. We've invested in our offices, designing incredible spaces with our employees in mind. But whether you’re at the office or working remotely, we’ll provide you the tech you need to do your best work.
  • Support your wellbeing. Depending on location, we offer medical and retirement benefits for employees—but no matter where you’re located, we have resources like our Employee Assistance Program and employee resource groups to support your mental health.
