You must be highly self-motivated to put together compelling corporate event and sponsorship packages. You will collaborate closely with our assistant to prepare professional flyers, pitch decks, and marketing materials. Your day-to-day will involve going out into the community, visiting corporate offices, and conducting proactive outreach (calls, emails, networking) to make sales and build a robust pipeline of corporate clients.
Additionally, for candidates with the capability and desire, you will have the opportunity to plan, design, and execute more club-wide events, leagues, or tournaments to further engage the local pickleball community.
