About this role

About the company
A venture-backed marketplace modernizing how brands buy sports and live event sponsorships. Most of this market still runs on cold email, spreadsheets, and one-off negotiations. This company is building the central platform where brands find, compare, and close sponsorship deals, and where properties list and sell their inventory. Clients include major national brands and professional sports teams, leagues, venues, and entertainment properties.

The role
You will help build the supply side of the marketplace: bringing sports teams, event organizers, festivals, and venues onto the platform, helping them package and sell their sponsorship inventory, and owning those relationships long term. You will work directly with the founders and a senior partnerships leader, with real ownership from day one.

What you will do
- Manage the partner pipeline end to end: sourcing, onboarding, and ongoing account management
- Run outbound to event organizers, festival producers, venues, and entertainment properties, and help refine the outreach playbook
- Lead discovery calls and product demos
- Help partners build strong listings with clear inventory, pricing, packaging, and audience data
- Support senior leadership on conversations with major and multi-property organizations
- Work with the founders on pricing insights and which verticals to target next
- Bring partner feedback directly to product and engineering
- Represent the company at industry events and dinners and build your own network
- Own your metrics: pipeline, onboarding speed, and listing quality

What they are looking for
- 1 to 2 years in partnerships, sales, sports, live events, entertainment, or a related field. Internships, college athletics, or a business you started all count
- Genuine interest in sports and live events, and curiosity about how sponsorship inventory is structured, priced, and valued
- Strong work ethic and competitive drive
- Detail oriented: clean listings, accurate notes, consistent follow through
- Owner mindset: you carry a relationship from first outreach to signed listing
- Clear communicator who can explain a marketplace simply to an event producer or a team's sales director
- High agency: comfortable building process where none exists yet
- A network at sports properties, event organizers, or venues is a plus, not a requirement

Location: New York, NY (On-site)
Pay: $75k - $100k per year
Work authorization: US Citizen or Permanent Resident
