Scouting Team expects the candidate to be honest, trustworthy, motivated and eager to learn. Due to the fact that Scouting Team operates with an online platform using the internet, the potential candidate needs good knowledge of the internet and basic computer skills. It is definitely an advantage, if the applicant has got his own broadband internet connection, laptop and a vehicle to move around in his country. Further, he should have knowledge of the football market in his country and preferable have a business background.
Very important: A country Manager has to have the finances to develop his own domestic country network. Sufficient funds have to be available to finance his living expenses and lifestyle while waiting to generate commissions. -
Do you need Country Managers for all countries?
No, we only need Country Managers in these countries where we do not have already an exclusive Country Manager. As you might know, we only work exclusively with one appointed Country Manager in one specific country. Nevertheless, if the profile of the applicant seems to be interesting we might forward the application to the country manager who then decides if an applicant might join him as a co-partner or in any other capacity for his domestic country network.
