● Experience in working within and/or with an advertising or marketing agency, in sports and/or broader entertainment/lifestyle marketing, or at least the connection/interest in this beautiful fan-fueled business.

● Feeling comfortable and happy in an environment focused on high efficiency, pace, ownership & accountability, trust and a positive/constructive “can-do” attitude and mind-set.
