About the Role

We are seeking a recent STEM graduate to join our Sports Operations team. The role will include skilled collection of the best possible data for many of the sports that we cover, as well as day to day management of several operational processes. Over time, this role will involve taking ownership of the data for individual sports, including developing and innovating internal processes. This is a time critical role as our data is tied to complex statistical modelling, often in real time.



As you'll be working with horse racing data, an interest in this field is beneficial, however you don't have to be a specialist in this area to join our team. There's so much more to us than sport, as a company we're passionate about social responsibility, sustainability and employee wellbeing.

About us

Our story began in 1998 when Mark Dixon, a university statistics lecturer, decided to set up a one-man-band consultancy, offering statistical modelling and research services. Featuring near the top of a Yellow Pages listing was a priority at the time and led to Mark opting for 'Advanced Training and Statistical Services,' or ATASS for short. Increasingly, his love of football led him to take on more and more sports-related work, and, by 2001, he and a handful of colleagues were working under the new identity of ATASS Sports.


Today we are one of the largest commercial statistical research teams in Europe and a leader in the field of the application of statistical modelling in sports. We have created and continue to develop a collection of statistical and mathematical models that allow sporting outcomes to be predicted with unparalleled accuracy. Click here to read more about us!
