-
Any other information that helps us understand your ability to create short-form content about your team.

Ideal Candidate
The ideal host is part analyst, part entertainer, and part influencer. You understand your team, but you also understand how fans consume content today. You can make a strong point quickly, speak with confidence, bring personality to the screen, and create content that feels current, authentic, and built for the platforms where fans are already spending their time.
You do not need to sound like a traditional broadcaster. We are looking for someone who can become a trusted daily voice for fans by being smart, prepared, energetic, relatable, and highly watchable.
The right candidate should be able to combine real team knowledge with modern content instincts. You should be able to react quickly, explain why a story matters, give fans a clear point of view, and create content that feels connected to the daily conversation around your team.
We are an equal opportunity employer and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, age, disability, gender identity, marital or veteran status, or any other protected class.
