OUR CEO
NICK KELLER
CEO Benchmark & Founder, Beyond Sport Foundation

Nick is the founder and CEO of Benchmark, a group of companies with beginnings in sport, underpinned by a commitment to purpose. Having founded each of the individual organisations over the past 20 years, Benchmark is a place for them to strengthen and scale with access to excellent central services and a diverse, innovative, and ambitious culture.
​
Nick is credited as being the pioneer of the sport & purpose industry, having told the BBC in 2011 “I don't think we will see many blue-chip brands take up sport sponsorship in future without a social element. Brands are now looking to engage employees, shareholders, clients and customers, in a more serious discourse about wider engagement with society. This is not just about charity, or corporate giving. It is good business to do 'good business’.
​
Passionate about stakeholder capitalism, Nick’s core belief is that with great strategy, shared value can be delivered across business, society, and in communities. This is reflected across the Benchmark businesses, as each of them fulfils this belief in its own way.
