Community Events & Sponsorship Manager

At our rapidly growing game studio, we are passionate about building unforgettable experiences for our players. We believe that gaming is fundamentally social, and the best way to grow our community is from the ground up. We are looking for a highly driven Community Events & Sponsorship Manager to take our flagship titles directly to students and connect our growing audience with brands that matter. This is a dynamic, hybrid role built for a "doer" who thrives in both B2B and B2C environments. You will be the mastermind behind our school-to-school and campus-to-campus gaming activations, managing on-the-ground Event Organizers (EOs) to ensure flawless execution. At the same time, you will be our commercial engine for these events—pitching, closing, and managing sponsorships with brands that want to reach the student gaming demographic.

If you know how to throw a great tournament and know how to sell the naming rights to it, this is the job for you. How to Apply: Please submit your resume, a brief cover letter, and a link to your portfolio or examples of past events/sponsorships you have managed. Drive Campus Activations: Plan, oversee, and scale our school-to-school game activation roadmap across target regions.

Manage Event Organizers (EOs): Act as the primary point of contact for external EOs and production vendors. Ensure they deliver on time, on budget, and up to our brand standards. Community Building: Ensure every activation creates a memorable experience that drives user acquisition, game downloads, and local community engagement. Logistics & Reporting: Track event metrics (attendance, participation, cost-per-acquisition) and provide post-event reports to improve future tours.

Pitch & Close: Identify, pitch, and secure non-endemic and endemic brand sponsors who want to engage with the high school/collegiate gaming demographic. Develop Assets: Build compelling pitch decks and custom sponsorship packages (e.g., booth space, in-game branding, naming rights, product sampling). Account Management: Serve as the main point of contact for sponsors. Ensure all deliverables, brand integrations, and ROI targets are met flawlessly during the events.

Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with our marketing and design teams to create promotional materials that highlight our partners and drive event attendance. Experience: 3+ years of experience in event management, field marketing, or brand partnerships, ideally within gaming, esports, or collegiate networks. The B2B/B2C Balance: Proven ability to manage both chaotic on-the-ground event logistics and high-level corporate sponsor relationships.
