Support content strategy & scheduling by helping design and manage programming grids for live events, studio shows, and original content to maximize audience engagement and platform performance.
Contribute to rights acquisition and support negotiations by helping interpret contracts, tracking key terms, and ensuring programming plans align with rights obligations and opportunities.
Collaborate with leagues, teams, and internal partners to maintain strong relationships and ensure successful execution of programming and contractual commitments.
Leverage audience & market analysis to inform scheduling decisions, identify growth opportunities, and respond to evolving fan behavior and consumption trends.
Coordinate cross-platform integration by working closely with production, marketing, digital, and other departments to deliver cohesive, compelling content experiences for fans.
Explore new sports, formats, and technologies to support innovation and expansion of ESPN's programming portfolio and fan engagement strategies.
Lead functional projects or workstreams with moderate complexity, aligning plans and priorities with organizational goals and clearly communicating expectations and outcomes to stakeholders.
Foster a collaborative, inclusive environment where Disney and ESPN values are lived every day, encouraging creative problem-solving, accountability, and open dialogue across the team.
Ensure high standards of organization, attention to detail, and confidentiality in managing schedules, rights information, and internal communications.
Support the Programming & Acquisitions team's work on key properties including the NBA, WNBA, and Professional Lacrosse to deliver extraordinary fan experiences.

Required Qualifications:

Minimum 4 years of experience in television programming, sports media, or a closely related sports business field, with a track record as a skilled, experienced subject matter expert and problem-solver.
Strong knowledge of sports television, the sports business, and the cable or streaming industry, including understanding of ESPN's services and network operations.
Demonstrated ability to plan and prioritize work, manage multiple projects and deadlines simultaneously, and align programming decisions with organizational goals.
Excellent oral and written communication skills, with the ability to explain difficult concepts and influence or negotiate with others to adopt different points of view.
Proven collaboration and relationship-building skills, with experience working across departments and with external partners or rights holders in a team-oriented environment.
Highly organized with strong attention to detail, including experience handling confidential information and interpreting or working with contracts.
Awareness of industry trends, competitor developments, and evolving media consumption patterns, particularly in sports.
Comfort working some nights and weekends as dictated by live sports schedules and business needs.
Demonstrated ability to mentor, train, and guide others, holding self and teammates accountable to commitments while demonstrating care and compassion.
Bachelor's Degree in a relevant field (e.g., Media, Communications, Sports Management, Business, or related discipline).

Preferred Qualifications:

Deep knowledge of basketball and related properties (e.g., professional and collegiate leagues) and familiarity with broader global sports landscapes.
Experience in television contract negotiations and working with legal contracts, including comfort reading and interpreting rights agreements.
