Athletes - This Is Your Next Competitive Arena

You’ve dedicated years to pushing your limits - mentally, physically, emotionally. You’ve competed, persevered, and achieved. But now… you’re looking for what’s next.


That’s where we come in.


At Athlete2Business, we specialise in placing athletes into sales-oriented roles across Australia, Southeast Asia, and the USA. We help you transition from the sporting arena into careers that value your grit, resilience, drive, and competitive mindset - careers where those traits aren’t just respected, they’re rewarded.


What Kind of Roles Are We Talking About?

We focus on revenue-generating roles—where success is measured, competition is healthy, and performance is everything:

  • Business Development Manager (BDM): Win new clients and drive revenue growth.
  • Sales Development Representative (SDR): Open doors, generate leads, and build sales pipelines.
  • Account Manager: Nurture existing client relationships and uncover growth opportunities.
  • Territory Manager: Manage sales across a specific region—part sales, part strategy.
  • Relationship Manager: Build long-term client partnerships based on trust and value.
  • Sales Representative: Sell products or services, hit targets, and drive outcomes.
  • Recruitment Consultant: Match top talent to companies—sales meets people skills.

If you love setting goals, being part of a team, and winning under pressure—these roles are made for you.


We Work with Companies That Want You

We don’t just work with any business.

We partner with top-tier companies across Australia, Southeast Asia, and the USA who actively want to hire athletes—businesses that:

  • Value the athlete mindset
  • Offer structured onboarding & training
  • Invest in continuous learning and development
  • Understand what it takes to transition from sport into business


How Much Can You Earn?

While base salaries typically range from $60K to $90K, these roles often include commission or performance bonuses.
And we’ve seen many A2B athletes go on to earn
$200K–$300K+ annually within 12–24 months.

Sales isn’t a ceiling—it’s a runway. And the mindset you’ve built through sport gives you an edge most others don’t have.


What’s the Process?

  1. Reach out.
    We’ll set up a
    free consultation to understand your goals, values, and skill set.
  2. Get matched.
    We’ll show you live opportunities, or go to market proactively to find the right role for you.
  3. Get hired.
    We’ll guide you through every step of the process—from interviews to onboarding.

 It’s completely free for athletes. We charge companies to hire you—so you don’t pay a cent.


You’re Not Starting From Scratch

You might feel like you’re starting over - but you’re not.

You’ve already built the foundation for success:
✔️ You know how to take feedback and apply it
✔️ You’re comfortable being measured on performance
✔️ You thrive in competitive environments
✔️ You’re mentally tough
✔️ You’re resilient when things get hard
✔️ You understand what it means to be part of a team

You just need someone to help you take that mindset and apply it in the business world.


Ready to Start Your Next Season?

We’ve placed hundreds of athletes into sales and leadership roles across various industries - tech, recruitment, med-tech, construction, logistics, SaaS, and more.


Some have doubled their income. Others now lead teams. A few have even started businesses of their own.

You’ve already proven you can perform at an elite level.

Now it’s time to build a career you love as much as your sport.
Let’s go.
