World Class events. World Class clients. A team that promotes from within.
For nearly 30 years, ISM has connected Fortune 1,000 companies with the world's most sought after sports experiences. Our 40+ annual events include the College Football Playoff National Championship, the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament, the Ryder Cup, the PGA Championship, and the World Cup.
We're growing at our Chicago headquarters and launching new sales teams. Many of our current managers started in this exact role, and as new teams form, we're looking for our Client Advisors to grow into leadership.
Your Seat at the TableYou'll work with senior executives at major U.S. companies, advising them on how executive hosting at premier sporting events can strengthen client relationships and drive new business. It's consultative sale with a large variety of products for the client to pick from, not a ticket pitch. You'll start in new business development, then take on account strategy and long-term client partnerships as you succeed.
