Senior Territory Manager

Location: UK or Ireland (Field-based / Hybrid, with regular travel across the UK and Western Europe)

Contract: Full-Time, permanent

Start Date: As soon as possible

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 commercial 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.

We are looking for a Senior Territory Manager to take full ownership of our UK and Western Europe region. In this high-impact role, you will manage an elite client base that includes some of the biggest clubs and governing bodies in world sport, protecting and expanding those relationships while winning the clubs and organisations that are not yet with us.

Reporting to the Head of Sales, you will run the full sales cycle end to end, from initial discovery to signed contract, working closely alongside our SDR, pre-sales, and account management teams. You’ll need the versatility and credibility to sit with a Head of Performance on Monday and a CEO or Finance Director on Tuesday. This is a senior role with genuine commercial ownership: you will actively shape how we grow the region, not simply manage what is already there.

If you’re commercially sharp, relationship-driven, passionate about elite sport, and thrive on winning high-value deals, this role will suit you.

• Own and deliver an annual sales target across the UK and Western Europe, spanning new business, renewals, and account upgrades.

• Protect and grow our existing elite client base: lead contract renewals, spot upgrade opportunities early, and ensure no agreement reaches its end date without a clear plan alongside our account management team.

• Sell across our full suite of hardware, software, and services to both new prospects and existing clients.

• Win new clubs and governing bodies, including those currently using an incumbent competitor, by building a compelling case for change.

• Build and maintain a healthy pipeline covering your target, backed by an accurate weekly forecast you stand behind.

• Lead commercial negotiations and leverage our pricing structure to protect value when closing multi-year agreements.

• Run product discovery and demonstrations with performance and sports science staff, translating technical value into a clear commercial business case for executive and finance decision-makers.

• Spend meaningful time face-to-face with clients and represent STATSports at key conferences and industry events across the region.

• Partner with SDRs and pre-sales specialists to convert new leads into qualified commercial opportunities.

• Hand signed deals over seamlessly to operations and account management to guarantee an exceptional onboarding experience.

• Maintain accurate, up-to-date deal and activity records in Salesforce.

• Act as the eyes and ears of the market—feeding back client insights, competitor movements, and pricing intelligence to product and leadership while tracking upcoming contract cycles.

• 3+ years of experience in B2B solution sales, including at least 2 years selling technology into professional or elite sport.

• A proven track record of owning a territory end to end and consistently closing new business against targets.

• An established network among performance, sports science, and medical practitioners in professional football or rugby across the UK and Ireland.

• The ability to articulate athlete-monitoring and performance-testing data credibly to sports practitioners, and translate that value into a commercial case for board-level sign-off.

• Proven experience negotiating multi-year contracts and managing complex renewals.

• Experience navigating long, multi-stakeholder sales cycles—from performance staff up to C-suite and board level—with the executive presence to hold your own in every room.

• Strong commercial judgement, forecasting discipline, and willingness to travel regularly across the UK and Western Europe.

• Direct experience selling GPS tracking, wearables, force plates, or comparable athlete-performance technology.

• Deep knowledge of the competitive landscape within athlete monitoring.

• Proven track record of competitive displacement—winning clients away from an incumbent provider.

• Fluency in an additional European language.

• Experience collaborating closely with SDRs and pre-sales teams.

• Advanced proficiency in Salesforce or a comparable CRM platform.

• A flagship commercial role leading one of STATSports’ highest-profile global territories

• Direct influence over regional growth strategy and multi-year partnerships with world-renowned clubs and governing bodies

• True end-to-end ownership backed by dedicated SDR, pre-sales, sports science, and account management teams

• High visibility with senior leadership and direct input into product and commercial direction

• Opportunities for career progression within a market-leading global sports technology business

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

• The chance to see your work directly impact championship moments at the very top of world sport
