Pitchbooking currently facilitates over 15,000 sessions of sport a year, with clients including Goals Soccer Centres, Oxford City Council, and Wokingham Borough Council. In February of this year, we secured considerable investment to grow the platform and become a market leader in the sports facility management space.
We have office space across CodeBase in Edinburgh and The Ormeau Baths in Belfast - co-working spaces with a lively start-up community. You'll be working in a vibrant office with great facilities and good people. The job will be primarily based in Edinburgh, but there will be travel required to meet with customers across the UK.
We have created a product that makes it easy for users to book and easy for facility owners to manage their sports facilities. Our early customers have given glowing testimonials of our offering, and now we are looking to rapidly expand our customer base across the UK and Ireland.
