ABOUTPADEL
39

We're not just a padel club, we're a social hub. Across our club locations, high-energy courts, a vibrant member community and our signature bar & café, come together to build a lifestyle around the fastest-growing sport in the world.

As we grow, the story we tell online and the experiences we create in person need to work as one. That's where you come in.

THE ROLE

This role is the bridge between social, content, events, partnerships and community. Every experience you build should create real-world energy and a steady stream of scalable content, and every post should give people a reason to show up.
