Description
With over 18 years of hands-on experience across the sports industry - including stints at Mumbai City FC, City Football Group, the NBA, CAA KWAN - in roles covering stadium operations, athlete management, grassroots development and sports marketing, I help ambitious young professionals, athletes, and career-switchers navigate the business of sport. In this package, you’ll receive tailored 1:1 guidance on breaking into or advancing within sports business roles including, but not limited to, operations, commercial, marketing, athlete management, venues, events. You will also get practical advice on building a credible profile, understanding industry realities, and mapping a clear career path forward; whether you’re targeting clubs, leagues, agencies, or the broader sports ecosystem. Drawing from my work launching content strategies, scaling events, managing pro-team logistics, and founding long-form sports media, the sessions are focused, actionable, and grounded in real-world experience.
What you'll get from this package
A clear, written 90-day action plan tailored to your background, targeting specific roles (operations, commercial, marketing, athlete management, venues, etc.) with prioritized next steps and realistic timelines.
Concrete feedback on how to present your experience so it resonates with sports industry hiring managers, plus refined talking points for LinkedIn, interviews, and networking conversations.
A practical breakdown of which sectors and job types best match your skills and goals, including realistic expectations on entry points, compensation ranges, and required skills for opportunities.
Specific guidance on who to approach, i.e. types of contacts, clubs, agencies, leagues, how to reach out effectively, and sample messages or approaches you can use immediately.
By the end of the session(s), you leave with a short list of concrete actions you can execute within 7–14 days, reducing overwhelm and giving them you progress toward landing a role or advancing in the sports industry
