• Bring new ideas to the team and help turn them into action.

Coaching:

• Coach 5–12 soccer sessions per week and substitute as needed.
• Lead fun, structured, and engaging sessions for young children.
• Create a safe, positive, high-energy experience for children and families.

What You’ll Gain

• Strong and proven 1:1 mentorship program with detailed quarterly goals.
• Real-world experience in marketing, sales, lead generation, and business development.
• Experience developing campaigns and measuring results.
• Exposure to community partnerships and local marketing.
• Professional communication, leadership, and customer-facing experience.
• The opportunity to take ownership of projects and contribute ideas.
• Tangible experience you can take with you into your next job or internship.

We're Looking For Someone Who

• Is pursuing a degree in Marketing, Business, or a related field.
• Is energetic, organized, reliable, and eager to learn.
• Communicates confidently with customers, teammates, and community partners.

• Has an interest in social media, digital marketing, and business growth.
• Can work independently while collaborating with a team.
• Has reliable transportation and can commit to 20+ hours/week, including Saturdays.
