Football Tipster Sales Executive (Membership Sales)

Remote (UK) | Freelance / self-employed | 10 hours per week

£17.50 per hour (£175 per week)

Seasonal contract between August and March each year, based on performance

E Junior Recruitment is recruiting on behalf of Stats Profit, a data-driven football tipster membership service established in 2014.

Stats Profit uses historical football statistics and defined selection criteria to identify qualifying weekend home-win selections across 11 European leagues. Members receive selections and performance information. Membership costs £495 for 365 days. Betting involves financial risk; historical results do not guarantee future returns.

The Opportunity

We need an experienced, proactive Sales Executive to find and convert paying members. This is a genuine sales role, not a football tipster, betting adviser or trainee trader position.

Be clear about the starting point: Stats Profit currently has JUST ONE active paying member. There is no established sales pipeline, no warm leads, no existing sales process and no separate marketing budget. You will be building customer acquisition almost entirely from scratch.

We are not looking for someone to wait for leads. You must identify appropriate adult audiences, devise your own practical sales approach and execute it with minimal supervision. You will have freedom to choose how you work, provided activity is lawful, responsible and commercially realistic.

Three Challenges

• Starting from almost zero. Find customers who have a genuine interest in a specialist football tipster service and turn that interest into memberships.
• Seasonality. Football selections are primarily provided August to May. You must account for the summer off-season in your sales strategy.
• No marketing budget. There is no funding for paid adverts, bought leads or premium platforms. You will use your OWN laptop, phone, internet connection, software and normal working tools and resources. You will not be expected to pay for advertising or buy a membership.

What You'll Do

• Research suitable adult customer segments and identify where they can be reached.
• Generate your own qualified leads through appropriate channels.
• Explain the service accurately, answer enquiries, follow up and convert sales.
• Build and maintain a simple prospect pipeline and report weekly on activity, conversations, opportunities and memberships sold.
• Test and improve your approach based on evidence, while meeting relevant data-protection and gambling-advertising requirements.

What We Need

Essential:

• Proven experience sourcing your own leads and converting them into paying customers.
• Strong communication, commercial judgement and objection-handling skills.
• Initiative and the ability to deliver independently without a ready-made pipeline.
• Reliable organisation and willingness to provide concise weekly progress updates.
• Your own equipment and resources to carry out the work remotely.

Desirable:

• Knowledge of football betting, sports statistics or data-led services.
• Experience selling paid memberships, subscriptions or other specialist services.
• Evidence of building a sales pipeline from scratch.

Application Process

Stage 1: Informal Zoom interview about your sales track record and approach.

Stage 2: Shortlisted candidates deliver a 10-minute presentation (maximum four slides): how would you win paying customers for a £495 football tipster membership with 10 hours per week, one active member and no marketing budget? Cover your target audience, channels, first four weeks and success measures.

Why Join?

Flexible remote hours, autonomy and the opportunity to build the customer-acquisition function of a specialist business. If you can turn your own sales ideas into paying customers, we'd like to hear from you.
