We are transforming our marketing approach… Our next chapter won’t look like our last, could you be missing a team member to support us in creating it?
This isn’t a “post and schedule” social role.
We’re looking for someone who understands that great brands don’t just market, they show up.
In Fashion. In feeds. In conversations. In communities. In culture.
You’ll shape how Sporting Life lives online and how our brand connects with people who care about sport, style, and the outdoors.
If you think in stories, notice trends before they trend, and instinctively know what makes people stop scrolling, keep reading.
