• This role will collaborate closely with the Sports Marketing team, which owns BRUCE BOLT’s professional athlete relationships and athlete strategy.

What We’re Looking For

• Bachelor’s degree in marketing, communications, public relations, journalism, sports management, or a related field.
• 3–5 years of experience in brand communications, partnerships, sports marketing, PR, experiential marketing, agency account management, or a related field.
• Professional experience in the sports industry is required; agency experience is strongly preferred.
• Exceptional project management and organizational skills, with a love for trackers, timelines, and detailed execution.
• Strong writing, editing, and communication abilities.
• Experience managing agencies, partners, creative deliverables, approvals, and multiple overlapping projects.
• Confidence working with executives, influencers, ambassadors, sponsors, retailers, media, and external partners.
