JOB SUMMARY:

ASTOUND is seeking a visionary, sales-driven Head of Sports Practice to lead and grow our presence in the sports and live entertainment industry. This is a strategic business development role responsible for driving new revenue through the creation of immersive brand experiences, fan engagement platforms, and venue innovation within the new experiential economy.
This leader will define and execute our go-to-market strategy in sports, tapping into ASTOUND’s unique strengths in design, digital, fabrication, and storytelling. You’ll work closely with major leagues, teams, brands, and venues to shape next-gen fan experiences—on game day and beyond.
We’re not looking for a traditional account manager. We’re looking for a revenue-generating, deal-closing, opportunity-creating business builder.

QUALIFICATIONS:

• 8–15+ years of experience in business development, partnerships, or strategy roles in sports, agency, experiential, or entertainment
• Proven success in closing large-scale, multi-year deals with pro teams, sports leagues, venues, and/or sponsors
• Deep understanding of how brand, technology, and experience converge to create unforgettable fan moments
• Highly networked within the sports business world—especially decision-makers in sponsorship, marketing, and innovation
• Ability to think both creatively and commercially — balancing brand storytelling with business ROI
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, high-ambition, entrepreneurial environment
• Passion for sports, immersive experiences, and the future of fan engagement
