About Us

StatsBomb was founded in January 2017 to provide data, analytics and consultancy to football teams, media and gambling companies, and has grown into a global multi-sports data and analytics SAAS provider. StatsBomb are well known in the sports analytics industry for providing unique insights into the game of football and have developed a strong brand synonymous with highest quality and accuracy of data coupled with excellent customer service and support. We have grown from our initial founder team of 3 at the start of 2017 to over 550 employees based in Europe, the US and Egypt, and are continuing to expand our operation as we build out our product portfolio and customer base. Our core products are data and analytics tools, with a tech stack that includes computer vision, machine learning, stream processing, and web-based dataviz. We also have a growing consultancy service that allows customers to have additional access to our expertise and insight. From our origins as a blog pre 2017, StatsBomb have always had a strong foothold in the football analytics community and education remains a constant feature of both our products and our customer support ethos. StatsBomb is an inspiring place to work. Our vision is clear - to be the world's leading sports data company - and we have a driven and dedicated leadership team to get us there, including the original founders, and headed up by CEO Ted Knutson. Our culture is open, honest, transparent, supportive and driven. Our employees are dedicated, motivated and genuinely love their work as well as the people they work with. StatsBomb have managed the finance operations of the business with a fairly small team of Accountants reporting into the COO. We are now at the stage where we need to expand our expertise in financial markets, M&A, and strategic use of balance sheets and are searching for an experienced, dynamic CFO to join the leadership team to help guide us through future growth phases of our organization. StatsBomb are seeking a candidate with CFO experience, ideally within a fast growth, successful, SAAS organization. The role requires an abundance of leadership, communication and engagement skills with solid experience in finance and risk management, particularly in the US. You will be a key member of the senior management team and will be expected to contribute to and influence strategy whilst also being able to lead and motivate a growing finance team. Strong analysis skills and commercial awareness are as important as sensitivity and cultural awareness as our organization continues to grow and expand into new markets. You will thrive on a challenge, be comfortable assessing and taking risks and will enjoy the competitive nature of a growing and ambitious organization. “It is a class place to be and the people are phenomenal. I feel so lucky to spend everyday working with amazing technology, on fascinating projects, as part of the most entertaining industry in the world. StatsBomb is one of those places where the company’s focus is so exciting that you want to be a part of it...some projects are totally confidential and game changing in the industry which is thrilling to be part of. Everyday I work in collaboration with industry leaders and learn from experts pushing the boundaries of computer vision, data science and sporting analysis. I have worked in all environments from global investment banking to growing startups and the culture here is like nothing I've seen. We recruit from different cultures all around the world who feel like distant cousins - events like our conference are like a wedding party that brings everyone together!” Chris, Senior Tech Engineer “StatsBomb is such a fun and exciting company to work for.
