  • Existing relationships with agents, agencies, managers, or athletes, or the demonstrated ability to build that network from scratch.
  • Remote-ready setup with a dedicated workspace, strong internet, and tools for outreach and scheduling across multiple time zones.
  • Sports industry background in an agency, team, league, or brand environment that involved regular contact with athletes and representation (preferred).
