Sponsorship and Sales – How They Work Together
Sales Specialist James White will be chatting to Sports Agent Jason Ratcliffe of Jata Management to talk Sports, Sponsorship, Sales and how they all work together.
About Jason Ratcliffe
Jason Ratcliffe played professional cricket for Warwickshire between 1988 and 1994 and then for Surrey from 1995 until 2002.
During his career, Ratcliffe received winner’s medals for all the domestic competitions in County Cricket. He made over one-hundred appearances in both first-class and one-day matches.
Following the end of his playing career, he became an administrator and quickly progressed to Deputy Chief Executive of the Professional Cricketers’ Association in 2008, spending a decade as a Board member of PCA Management Ltd.
He led the organisation’s huge growth in membership and services between 2002 and 2016, driving multiple innovative work for the PCA. This including the establishment of a network of Personal Development and Welfare Managers to help provide players with practical support and advice to help smooth the transition to life after cricket, whilst introducing commercial partners and leading all PR and communications.
