• Collaborate with product and support teams to ensure teams get set up successfully on the platform
• Negotiate partnership terms, team pricing plans, and camp collaborations
• Track partnership performance and report on pipeline, activations, and retention

What we're looking for

• 3+ years of experience in partnerships, business development, or account management, ideally in sports, youth athletics, or a related field
• Familiarity with the hockey ecosystem — junior leagues, prep programs, AAA/youth hockey, or camps/showcases
• Strong communication and negotiation skills with the ability to build trust with coaches and organizational decision-makers
• Proven ability to manage a sales or partnerships pipeline and hit growth targets
• Comfortable working cross-functionally with product, marketing, and support teams
• Self-starter who can travel to camps, showcases, and team events as needed
