Marketing Analyst (Early Careers Programme 2027)

Responsibilities

• Find the story in the data. Work with fan, ticketing, digital and commercial data to spot patterns, test hypotheses and uncover insights that can help some of the world's leading sports organisations grow their audiences and revenues.
• Turn insight into action. Go beyond producing analysis. You'll help work out what it means, what our clients should do next, and how we can turn an interesting finding into a clear commercial, marketing or sponsorship strategy.
• Build, test and improve. Help design and deliver initiatives ranging from fan research and event surveys to digital marketing campaigns, measuring what works and continually looking for ways to make it better.
• Communicate and influence. Turn complex analysis into clear, compelling recommendations, and learn how to present your thinking to colleagues, clients and senior stakeholders. You'll build relationships with people across different disciplines, organisations and markets.
• Stay curious. Keep asking questions about how sport, entertainment and fandom are changing. You'll explore new platforms, technologies, behaviours and commercial models, and think about what they could mean for our clients and their fans.

Requirements

• You're curious. You ask good questions, want to understand why things happen, and aren't satisfied with taking an answer at face value. You might be just as interested in why fans behave the way they do as you are in what they do.
• You like solving problems. You enjoy getting stuck into something complicated, breaking it down and working towards an answer. You're comfortable thinking independently, but you also know that the best answers often come from working with other people.
• You're comfortable with numbers. You don't need to be a data scientist or an Excel expert – we'll teach you the tools you need. But you should enjoy working with data, be comfortable in a spreadsheet, and be interested in using evidence to answer questions and make decisions.
• You learn quickly – and want to keep learning. You seek out feedback, take ownership of your development and are willing to try things you haven't done before.
• You're good with people. You listen, communicate clearly and adapt to the people around you. You'll care about being a great teammate and, over time, build the confidence and judgement to become a trusted partner to our clients.
• You care about getting things right. Whether you're analysing thousands of fan records or preparing something for a client, you notice the details, question things that don't look right and take pride in the quality of your work.
• You're interested in the business of sport and entertainment. You don't need to know every score, player or statistic. What matters more is a curiosity about the industry: how fans behave, how organisations grow, how brands connect with audiences, and how sport and entertainment are changing.
• Above all, we're looking for people with potential. We can teach you the tools. We're looking for people who are curious, think critically, ask great questions, and bring the drive and energy to keep learning.
