3 weeks ago
At Spurs Sports & Entertainment (SS&E), we work in service of something bigger than ourselves. To us it is so much more than just a game or concert. It takes all the members of our team to deliver on our mission of uniting people through unforgettable experiences and, to fulfill our purpose of being champions, inspiring humanity through sports and entertainment. SS&E owns and operates the San Antonio Spurs (NBA), Austin Spurs (NBA G-League), the San Antonio FC (USL), and manages the day-to-day operations of the Frost Bank Center, Toyota Field, STAR Complex and the Victory Capital Performance Center.
Partnerships is a critical thread that runs through our business, our franchises and our properties. We know that beyond the revenue opportunities that partnerships provide, they have the power to build community, demonstrate our values and drive the future of our business.
SS&E is seeking an experienced and dynamic Vice President (or Senior Vice President) of Global Partnerships to join our leadership team. Reporting to the Chief Commercial Officer, this individual will leverage their track record of thinking “outside of the box” to build marketing platforms, drive tangible value and meet and/or exceed revenue growth goals for our clients and our organization. The VP/SVP, Global Partnerships will be a self-starter and formidable cross-functional leader, capable of wielding data insights to inform strategy, and adept at managing complexity and ambiguity in their day-to-day work. The VP/SVP will be skilled at both strategy and operations, and able to build a winning and robust set of priorities for their team and the organization.
In their first 12-18 months, we expect this role to lead on core projects like securing a jersey patch partner, driving market and regional expansion, and leading their team to close multiple seven figure deals. In addition to being an external leader and representative of SS&E, they will be a savvy internal collaborator and partner with teams like Basketball Operations, Brand, Impact and more. This position is based in San Antonio and will lead a team of 20+ individuals across Partnerships Sales, Account Management, Activation and Brand Lab.
