Alex Fraser

I am deeply committed to pursuing a career in financial management within the sports industry, leveraging my Master’s in Finance and Business alongside my hands-on experience managing operations at a leading Padel club. To further deepen my skillset and broaden my expertise, I am also actively seeking a graduate tax role, allowing me to gain valuable experience and qualifications in a field that can elevate my career to new heights. My goal is to integrate strategic financial planning, tax expertise, and data-driven decision-making to drive the financial success of a sporting organisation. With a strong foundation in sports business management, I understand both the operational and commercial challenges within the industry and am passionate about optimizing revenue streams, budgeting, and financial performance. Through continuous learning, analytical rigor, and real-world application, I aspire to establish myself as a diligent, forward-thinking professional who delivers measurable financial impact while contributing to the growth of the sports sector.

I hold a Master’s degree in Finance and Business and an undergraduate degree in Sports Business Management, both of which have equipped me with a solid foundation in business strategy, financial analysis, and the sports industry. Throughout my studies, I demonstrated strong time management and resilience by balancing a range of hospitality roles and playing semi-professional football to support myself.

After completing my dissertation, I returned to London and took on the role of Duty Manager at Stratford Padel Club, where I gained valuable hands-on experience in sports operations, client engagement, and team leadership. Now, with my Master’s qualification, I am eager to advance into a role that better aligns with my long-term career aspirations, allowing me to leverage my skills and passion for sports business and analytics.

I have a strong academic foundation that combines a Bachelor’s degree in Sports Business Management and a Master’s degree in Finance and Business. My undergraduate studies provided me with in-depth knowledge of the sports industry, focusing on business strategy, operations, and the unique challenges within the sector. Building on this, my Master’s degree enhanced my expertise in financial analysis, data-driven decision-making, and strategic management, equipping me with a well-rounded skill set to navigate the intersection of sports and business. This combination of education positions me to deliver impactful insights and contribute to the success of forward-thinking companies.
