About the role
This interview tests how you move from footage and performance data to decisions that matter on the pitch. The panel is looking for tactical understanding, disciplined data quality, concise communication and the judgement to prioritise analysis when coaches need answers quickly.
How to prepare
- Choose examples where your analysis changed a training plan, match approach or player conversation.
- Review how you define and quality-check coded events before comparing matches or players.
- Practise explaining one tactical pattern with a small number of clips and measures.
- Prepare to discuss conflicting evidence from video, event data, tracking data and staff observation.
- Think through how you assign urgent work and review outputs across an analysis team.
Common mistakes
- Listing tools and metrics without explaining the football question they answer.
- Presenting too many clips or charts for the time and audience available.
- Ignoring coding definitions, sample context or missing data when making comparisons.
- Treating disagreement with a coach as proof that the analysis is more objective.
