In the next instalment of our 'Meet The Team' series, we introduce Kailyn Stevenson, Implementation Team Member at Sport:80.

Kailyn, tell us a bit about yourself!

"After moving to Sheffield to study Law, I started my career managing various teams at a contact centre. From there, I found my feet back in the legal world, heading up a team at a local law firm.

"I’ve always held a strong interest in the operational side of businesses and the technology used to manage day-to-day operations, which eventually led me to into project management within the Projects + Development Team, working on case management software.

"After moving away from the law, I decided to push on with a career in tech - and here I am at Sport:80!"

What are some of your main duties at Sport:80?

"I work in the Implementation Team managing projects centred around onboarding new clients. My role is quite new to the business, and involves working closely with clients and our internal teams to ensure client onboards are as efficient as possible."

Tell us a bit about your interests!
