Description

  • Maintain a target list of professional athletes aligned with the organization’s mission, including relevant context for credible outreach.
  • Contact athletes and their representatives through the most effective channels, including agents, managers, publicists, family members, or direct relationships.
  • Move promising outreach from first contact to confirmed meetings by owning follow-up and scheduling across time zones.

  • Strong follow-up and organization skills, with the ability to manage a clean outreach pipeline and consistent communication.
  • 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).
