Cubs Marketing Job

[Benchwarmer]

Here's your chance Nuts to show your mettle. The Cubs are looking for a new Director of Marketing:

 

The Director of Marketing, Chicago Cubs, will report to the EVP/Chief Sales and Marketing Officer, Wally Hayward, and be responsible for driving the team’s revenue and fan engagement. The Director of Marketing will have oversight of branding, advertising, promotions, game entertainment, social media, player relations, research, and customer relationship management tools. This department leader will support ticket sales, sponsorship sales, community relations, broadcast, baseball entertainment and IT. Success will be measured by the accomplishment of performance metrics specific to the team and the departments they support. Special events entail stadium entertainment, pre and post game activities, sales and marketing events, including events at Cub facilities and ballparks. Administrative duties include strategic planning, budgeting, media and agency negotiations, staffing and associate development.

 

Although I feel the Cubs do a pretty job of marketing the team, there remain several opportunities to expand the brand. Looks like this position also entails the minor leagues which would be very cool. I think it would be great if someone here got the job. Have at it.

So this is working under Crane Kenney and not Theo Epstein?

Good luck marketing this club for the foreseeable future. At least it's the brand and not the team...

Even working under Theo Epstein ultimately means you are working under Crane Kenney.

 

Come to think of it, I'm going to assume that Crane Kenney made Theo make Jed sign Reed Johnson.

My old boss applied for the Cubs catering job months ago. He was well qualified. No interview, no call back. I'm sure 1000's apply for these jobs.
