Graphics Assistant Producer

Anywhere you find sport, Stats Perform is there.  However, data and tech are only half of the package. We need great people to fuel the engine.

We succeeded thanks to a team of amazing people. They spend their days collecting, analyzing, and interpreting data from a wide range of live sporting events. If you combine this real-time data with our 40-year-old archives, elite journalists, camera operators, copywriters, the latest in AI wizardry, and a host of 'behind the scenes' support staff, you've got all the ingredients to make it a magical experience!

Responsibilities:

Do you know Giannis’ surname? Are you the type of person who hangs on every word of a Mikel Arteta press conference? Can you explain why xG matters, while also knowing your Xs from your Os? If so, this could be the perfect job for you.

Do you enjoy taking a vision and turning it into dynamic and engrossing content? Have you got a creative mind with a flair for design, an eye for detail and a talent for great storytelling?

As a Graphics Assistant Producer you will be involved in making engaging bespoke content for brands, organisations and other clients, while working alongside our global team of journalists covering the biggest teams, players and stories across the sporting world, from across the planet. With access to the best sports data in the world, extensive newsgathering and an exciting highlights portfolio, we create engaging video output for a range of digital, broadcast, and social clients – and we want you to be at the heart of all of it.

Required Qualifications:
