TALENT – HEAD OF MARKETING

Sports X was retained exclusively to support Badminton England, the National Governing Body for the sport in England in their search for a Head of Marketing, a key role that sat in the organisation’s leadership team.

Sports X were tasked with sourcing an ambitious, talented, and driven marketer with a passion for results. Someone who is hands-on and passionate about delivering brilliant
content, comms, and commercial results. The role was focused on growing grassroots community badminton, increasing the number of members, promoting their brilliant events, and celebrating badminton’s Olympic and Paralympic athletes.

Working in partnership with Badminton England we managed the full life cycle of the recruitment process enabling them to hire a best in class candidate with previous marketing experience working within a Premier League Football Club.

VERY EASY TO WORK WITH, WORKS AT SPEED AND HAS BEEN A VERY HELPFUL COMPLEMENT TO OUR HR CAPABILITY

“Jon has helped me on a couple of occasions, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend his services. On the first project, he was able to work through a large number of candidate applications at speed to create a shortlist which was a huge timesaver. He subsequently conducted a more proactive search where his market understanding, and reach enabled him to source candidates quickly.”
