SVP Global Operations at F1 Arcade - Remote Exec

SVP Global Operations at F1 Arcade - Remote Exec Role — Remote

At first glance, this SVP-level role is listed as remote — but don't mistake it for a true location-independent position. There are two critical constraints for nomads to consider:

• Proximity requirement: You must live within a 25-mile radius of an F1® Arcade venue. Current venues are concentrated in US and UK cities, so your base must be near one of those locations.
• Up to 70% global travel: This is an extremely high travel load. You'll spend most of your working life in transit between venue markets — not sipping coffee at a coworking space in Lisbon.

The flexibility offered here is more of a field-executive model than digital nomad lifestyle. You have no fixed office, but you're perpetually on the road visiting venues in the US and UK. The role requires availability across multiple time zones, suggesting schedule flexibility is a necessity — but not in the relaxed, async sense nomads prefer.

There are no mentioned perks like coworking stipends, equipment budgets, or nomad-friendly allowances. For someone who genuinely loves travel and can handle a demanding, executive-level road warrior lifestyle, this role offers built-in global mobility. But if you're seeking schedule freedom or geographic autonomy, this posting is not a match.
