Commercial Advisory Board Members | Football Clubs & Agents | UK & EU

Lagom Sports Compliance is looking for well-connected football-sector advisers who can help us open doors with clubs, agents and football decision-makers across the UK and Europe.

This is a remunerated commercial advisory position with commission and profit-share potential.

Lagom Sports Compliance is a specialist compliance business built for football. We help clubs, agents and football counterparties respond to the changing regulatory and governance environment, including the Football Governance Act 2025, UEFA Club Licensing and Financial Sustainability Regulations, and the incoming EU AML obligations for professional football.

We are now looking to build a small commercial advisory board of people who understand the football market and have trusted relationships across clubs, agencies, ownership groups and the wider professional football ecosystem.

This role is about market access, credibility and introductions.

It would suit people who can help us get into the right rooms and speak to the right people.

We are particularly interested in hearing from:

  • Former professional footballers with strong club, agent or ownership networks

  • Former club CEOs, CFOs, COOs, commercial directors, sporting directors or general counsel

  • Former senior leaders or management within football clubs, leagues, federations or agencies

  • Current or former agents, agency executives or intermediary specialists

  • People who have successfully sold professional services into football clubs, including consulting, legal, accounting, audit, tax, corporate finance, governance, risk or regulatory services

  • Senior sports business professionals with relationships across UK or European football

What you would help us with

  • Introduce Lagom Sports Compliance to relevant clubs, agents and football-sector contacts

  • Help us understand how football clubs and agencies buy professional services

  • Advise on the right decision-makers within clubs, agencies, ownership groups and governing bodies

  • Sense-check our commercial proposition and market messaging

  • Support our growth across the UK and selected EU football markets

What we are looking for

We are looking for people with genuine relationships, sound judgement and the credibility to start meaningful conversations.

This is not a symbolic advisory role and it is not about adding names to a website. We are looking for advisers who can actively help us build access, trust and commercial momentum in the football market.

Commitment

This is a part-time advisory position. The expected commitment will be light-touch but meaningful, likely involving periodic calls, strategic input and relevant introductions.

Remuneration

This is a paid advisory role.

Advisory board members will be able to earn commission on qualifying introductions that convert into paid client engagements. In addition, advisers may also earn an agreed percentage of annual profits, linked to their role, contribution and the commercial value they help create for the business.

The precise structure will be agreed individually and confirmed in writing. We expect this to include a blend of introduction commission and earned annual profit-share, depending on experience, network strength and level of involvement.

Location

UK and European football markets. Remote-first, with occasional meetings where useful.

Interested?

If you think you could help Lagom Sports Compliance open the right conversations across UK or European football, we would be pleased to hear from you.
