Business Development Executive

About SportStr

SportStr is an all-in-one digital platform built for sports academies. We help academy owners and coaches manage scheduling, athlete performance, communication, payments, and day-to-day operations more efficiently.

We're growing and looking for someone who can help us take SportStr to more academies and sports organizations.

The Role

As a Business Development Associate, you'll work across the sales cycle -- from identifying and engaging prospects to product demos, follow-ups, proposals, and closing support.

You'll engage directly with academy owners, coaches, and other decision-makers, understand how they operate today, and show them how SportStr can make their lives easier.

What You'll Do

• Prospect and qualify sports academies and related organizations
• Connect with academy owners, coaches, and decision-makers
• Conduct online product demos and discovery conversations
• Manage leads, follow-ups, and opportunities through the CRM
• Prepare proposals and support commercial discussions
• Work toward sales and revenue targets
• Share prospect feedback and market insights with the product team
• Identify new partnerships and growth opportunities within the sports ecosystem

What We're Looking For

• Experience in sales, business development, or a customer-facing role
• Strong communication and relationship-building skills
• Confidence in prospecting, presenting, and following up
• Ability to work independently in a remote environment
• Comfortable using CRM, video conferencing, and collaboration tools
• Exposure to sports is a huge plus: as a player, coach, academy professional, sports administrator, or through the wider sports ecosystem

Bonus Points

• SaaS or technology sales experience
• Startup experience
• Existing relationships with sports academies, clubs, coaches, or sports organizations

If sports and technology excite you, and you enjoy building relationships and opening new opportunities we'd love to hear from you.
