- Support Head Coach and other support staff in the preparations, execution and review of matches, tournaments and practice sessions.
- Provide support across other game matters as required by Pro-Gaming management

- Assist Pro-Gaming management during the off-season with player scouting, shortlisting potential signings and creating data visualisations of their attributes
- Ensure all research collated is stored exclusively on Fnatic Drive or other cloud storage associated with your Fnatic email account, and share with appropriate persons as requested
We're looking for:
- A deep understanding of Rainbow Six and its competitive esports scene
