Performance Analytics Jobs
26 active roles
Performance analytics sits at the intersection of sport science, data analysis, and coaching. These roles focus on using data to improve athletic performance — from GPS and heart rate monitoring to video analysis and injury prevention modelling.
Performance analysts work directly with coaches and sports scientists to translate raw data into actionable insights. You might be building dashboards that show a coach how a player's sprint load has changed across a training week, or developing predictive models to flag injury risk before it becomes a problem. The role requires a blend of technical skills — Python, R, Catapult, or video analysis software — and the ability to communicate clearly with non-technical coaching staff.
Roles exist at professional clubs across the NFL, MLS, NBA, Premier League, and many other leagues. Some focus on first-team analysis, others on academy and youth development. Browse all active openings below.
