50 Sport is The Sports Entertainment Agency.
We build and grow social communities, deliver entertainment-led creative campaigns, and drive sponsorship value; connecting fans, brands, and rights holders worldwide. Uniting sport, entertainment, and culture through industry-leading creativity, social media, strategy and performance for clients including Scuderia Ferrari F1 Team, FIFA World Cup 2026, FIFA Club World Cup 2025, Prime Video Sport, Jim Beam and Qatar Airways.
Due to a number of recent business wins and existing client demand, we are looking to bolster our growing team with a Business Director.
We’re looking for a Business Director to lead and grow a portfolio of key client relationships, acting as a senior, trusted partner to some of the biggest brands and rights holders in sport.
At the heart of the role is client leadership: building deep relationships with senior stakeholders, understanding their businesses and ambitions, anticipating what they need next and continually identifying opportunities for us to add greater value.
The Business Director will set the vision and ambition for their clients, ensuring we consistently deliver an exceptional standard of thinking, service and work. They will bring together the best of our strategy, editorial, creative and production expertise, creating strong partnerships between our clients and agency teams.
They will have ultimate responsibility for the health and growth of their client portfolio – from the strength of senior relationships and client satisfaction, through to revenue growth, profitability and the quality of our overall agency partnership.
This is a role for someone who is relentlessly proactive. They won’t wait for a brief or a problem to land. They will stay close to their clients’ businesses, understand what is happening in their world and the wider sporting and cultural landscape, and proactively bring ideas, opportunities and solutions to the table.
Reporting to the Executive Director, the Business Director will also play an important leadership role within Client Services and the wider agency. They will lead by example, setting the pace and establishing consistently high standards for client leadership, commercial thinking, communication and proactivity.
The remit also encompasses unlocking growth within existing relationships and playing a pivotal role in new business. The right person will be commercially minded and entrepreneurial, able to spot opportunities, develop compelling propositions and turn great client relationships into broader, longer-term partnerships.
They will be equally comfortable discussing a client’s business priorities with a CMO, challenging a brief with our Strategy team, reviewing a creative idea or identifying an entirely new opportunity for the agency.
A passion for and belief in the power of sport is mandatory.
