We are seeking a natural team leader and creative producer to lead a strong team of product designers, produce key projects, and collaborate with design, product, and engineering managers to create groundbreaking sports experiences.

They are leading vision and purpose, inspiring creativity, and overseeing the organization and planning of team-wide initiatives. The team is deeply involved in scaling existing media services as well as introducing new ones. Its culture is diverse, passionate, grows with debate, and is wholly customer-focused. The ideal candidate would want to influence their own development and is seeking a company where they have the opportunity to pursue their interests across functions and geographies. Also, where a job title is not considered the final definition of who they are, but the starting point of what they can achieve with the team. The Producer advances design efforts by diving deeply into the issues at hand, identifying and mitigating risks to the project, handling dependencies, and leading all issues impacting deliverables and schedules. They are responsible for design projects from ideation to delivery. They guide each project through the design process and ensure forward momentum by tracking and reporting project status, seeking closure to open questions, identifying next steps and risks, and facilitating design reviews. They serve as the liaison between Design and cross-functional teams.
