About The Position

In this remote role, you’ll lead key partnerships across the sports media/tech space on behalf of FairPlay Sports Media, with a focus on performance, growth, and measurable outcomes. You'll act as the day-to-day lead, driving strategies that increase traffic, conversion, and monetization of FairPlay partners, while managing joint business plans and aligning goals across stakeholders.
