Sportico: Senior Director, Events
Sportico, the leading authority on the business of sports, covering the intersection of sports, finance, media, law, technology, real estate, sponsorship, private equity, and culture is hiring an entrepreneurial Senior Director of Events to lead the strategy, growth and execution of one of the company's most important business platforms.

• Proven ability to build and monetize premium B2B conferences and executive experiences.
• Experience recruiting high-profile speakers, moderators, and industry leaders.
• Strong understanding of the global sports industry and its executive ecosystem.

What We're Looking For
The ideal candidate is a builder. They recognize opportunities before competitors do and understand how to transform emerging trends into must-attend industry events. They know how to create experiences that executives prioritize because of the quality of the conversations, the caliber of the attendees, and the business opportunities those events create. They combine strategic vision with operational excellence, understand the economics of premium live media businesses, and have the creativity to imagine what Sportico's next signature event should be.
A good faith estimate of the salary range is $100k - $125k upon hire + bonus.
