HEAD OF BUSINESS OPERATIONS & DEVELOPMENT (Womenâs Soccer)

Title: Head of Business Operations & Development (Womenâs Soccer)
Department: Administration
Reports to: President/CEO

Background:  
The sport of soccer has experienced unprecedented growth in the United States in recent years. This is demonstrated by a variety of metrics -- including fan interest, explosion of games aired on television, media coverage, growth of professional soccer, etc.  The United Soccer League (âUSLâ) features 40+ professional clubs across the U.S.  

The USL Super League is a professional womenâs soccer league set to kick off in August 2024.   Built for the future of womenâs soccer, the USL Super League has committed to U.S. Soccerâs Division One standards, reflecting its collective vision to be a global leader on and off the field while providing more opportunities for more women in more communities.  

The inaugural 2024 season will feature eight teams with additional teams set to join in subsequent seasons. Uniquely for American soccer, the USL Super League will play on the âfall-to-summerâ soccer calendar traditionally followed around the world, ensuring players are able to represent both club and country and allowing clubs to actively participate in the emerging global womenâs transfer market. 

The USL Super League will sit at the top of the USLâs distinct youth-to-pro womenâs pathway. The complete pathway includes the USL W League, the leading pre-professional womenâs soccer league in the United States; the USL Academy, an advanced talent-development platform connected to professional and pre-professional USL clubs; and the Super Y League, a premier national youth competition.

Sporting Club Jacksonville, or âSporting JAXâ is the club founded in 2020 by a local Jacksonville ownership group and named in collaboration with the First Coast community in 2023. 

The clubâs goal is to operate a womenâs professional USL Super League club, a menâs professional USL Championship club, and a USL Youth Academy and to partner with city and county authorities to develop a 15,000-capacity community stadium and training facilities to host the clubs in Northeast Florida. 

The ownership group is led by successful business entrepreneur Ricky Caplin and includes sporting legends Tim Tebow and Fred Taylor, as well as experienced professional soccer executive Steve Livingstone and local community innovator Tony Allegretti. Additionally, UF womenâs soccer coaching legend Becky Burleigh leads Sporting JAXâs efforts as a consultant to the womenâs pro team.

The club is a community-oriented organization focused on providing opportunities for youth development, fostering competition, and delivering exceptional professional soccer experiences.

The clubâs motto is âLift Evert Voiceâ inspired by the James Weldon Johnson anthem written in Jacksonville in 1900. The clubâs multi-purpose stadium and regional youth facilities will reach out beyond soccer to other sports and other sporting communities. Sporting JAX exists in part to advance soccer and an equal playing field in our community as well as provide a âsporting chanceâ for the underserved and marginalized across the First Coast and beyond. 

Position Overview:  

The Head of Business Operations & Development (Womenâs Soccer) will oversee all business development and operations for the clubâs womenâs pathway to professionalism and Super League franchise. This position will report directly to the club President.

Duties & Responsibilities:

â Work with ownership and other members of the clubâs senior leadership to develop and implement a business plan for the clubâs Super League team and overall womenâs pathway (including, as applicable, the USL W League and USL Academy programs)
