BP Media helps athletes and universities prove real performance and market value with confidence.
As athlete marketing and sponsorship decisions evolve, value can’t be based on opinions, follower counts, or guesswork. Athletic departments, brands, and agencies need clear, defensible proof of what athletes actually deliver. Athletes need a credible way to show why they deserve higher‑value opportunities.
BP Media turns athlete visibility into evidence.
Our technology uses AI and computer vision to automatically identify athletes in live and recorded content, then measure real game‑day and digital exposure (what fans, media, and sponsors actually see) and translate it into clear, sponsor‑ready insights. The result: partnerships and compensation decisions that are easier to justify, approve, and stand behind.
By bringing transparency and objectivity to athlete exposure, BP Media helps:
- Universities and athletic departments make smarter, defensible decisions
- Athletes prove their value and unlock more opportunities
- Brands and agencies invest with clearer ROI and accountability
Why this role matters
BP Media is operating at the intersection of sports and data, where demand is growing fast and standards are still being defined. Our product is live, early users are engaging, and universities, brands, and agencies are actively seeking better ways to validate athlete value.
We’re now looking for a UK‑based Europe Head to represent BP Media on the ground—someone who can build the market, open doors, and scale adoption across Europe.
Your mission: build Europe
As Europe Head (UK‑based), you will act as BP Media’s regional leader and commercial representative for Europe. You’ll own the relationships, pipeline, partnerships, and early revenue across key European markets—starting from the UK and expanding across EU regions.
Why Join Now
- Product v1 is live and converting
- Product v2 in development with early users moving to paid
- Long‑term trajectory: $50M+ valuation within 3 years
What you’ll do
- Serve as BP Media’s regional face and representative across Europe
- Build and manage relationships with clubs, leagues, federations, universities, agencies, and brands
- Source and close pilot programs and convert them into long‑term partnerships
- Identify strategic partners (sports media, data providers, agencies) to accelerate distribution
- Drive go‑to‑market execution in Europe: pricing, packaging, and messaging localization
- Represent BP Media at major European sports and industry events
- Provide market feedback to shape product priorities and roadmap for Europe
Founding Partner structure
This is a Founding Partner opportunity— not a traditional job.
To align incentives and accelerate growth, this role includes a capital contribution as a founding member, allocated to fund hiring and support a new product release team structure.
In return, this role includes:
- Equity ownership (starting at 20%), tied to capital contribution and level of involvement
- Commission (up to 20%) on deals you help originate
- Base salary planned for Q2‑2026, subject to company funding and milestones
Details are discussed transparently during the conversation.
Who this is a great fit for
- Based in the UK (or able to operate from the UK) with reach across Europe
- Strong network in football/soccer, sponsorship, agencies, clubs, federations, or sports media
- Commercial, relationship‑driven builder mentality—comfortable creating a market from zero
- Experience in sports partnerships, sponsorship sales, sports media, or sports business development
- Excited by ownership, influence, and long‑term upside at founder level
BP Media exists to bring clarity, trust, and accountability to athlete value—so decisions are driven by evidence, not assumptions.
