As a central point of contact for stakeholders, you will ensure CRM activity aligns with business priorities, delivers measurable results and enhances the fan experience.

Hands-on experience with ESPs and CDPs is essential. Bloomreach experience is ideal, but Salesforce Marketing Cloud, Braze or similar platforms are also valuable.
