At Keystone Sports, we help international student-athletes obtain sports scholarships in the US and Canada. Over the years, we have assisted 14,000+ international student-athletes, from 35+ countries, to enroll at universities all over North America. We're a team of more than 100 people, most of us former student-athletes, and we possess the expertise and contacts that have enabled athletes to achieve lucrative scholarships and compete in many different American college sports.
As a Sports Consultant in Keystone Sports UK, you are responsible for recruiting new UK student-athletes to Keystone Sports. This is a vital function in our company, which ensures growth, stability, and a foundation for doing business and delivering our services by creating revenue streams and increasing the interest in college sports among our target group of young and promising students. From first introducing the concept of American college sports and higher education to prospective students, to making them take the leap to begin the process, and eventually venturing out to their new home in the US. The Sports Consultant is the catalyst to making all of this happen and guides the student from the first point of contact to the vital meeting with their parents and making the decision of attending a US/Canadian college through our services.
