  • Research industry trends to keep our strategies fresh and relevant.
  • Manage relationships with media outlets and advertising representatives.

Content & Communications

  • Write press releases and develop feature stories for distribution.
  • Regularly analyze ticketing data to identify trends and target marketing efforts.
  • Manage and grow email marketing campaigns to increase reach and fan engagement.
  • Execute guerrilla marketing tactics, such as pocket schedule and magnet distribution, and signage placements.
  • In-Season & Game Day Duties

  • Collect photo and video content during games for marketing use and client recaps.
  • Support game day operations and assist other departments as needed.
  • Uphold the Kernels' "Excellence in All We Do" credo with top-tier customer service.
  • Additional Expectations

  • Maintain standard office hours (Mon-Fri, 9am-5pm) on non-game days.
  • Be available for all Cedar Rapids Kernels home games and occasional Waterloo Bucks games.
  • Work evenings, weekends, and holidays as required.
  • Assist with all special events and other duties as assigned.
  • Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in marketing, advertising, business, or related field.
  • 1-3 years of experience in marketing, preferably in sports or entertainment.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.
  • Proficient in Microsoft Office.
  • Knowledge of digital and traditional media marketing.
  • Experience managing social media for an organization is a plus.
  • Ready to apply?
