Partnerships Manager
for each section heading. Do not repeat job title as heading. Do not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate like Equal Opportunity etc. Also remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Also remove application instructions (none present). Keep all substantive info.
We need to decide which sections to include based on content.
The posting includes:
- Overview (description of club, mission). Could be "About the role" or maybe "Overview". The instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we should map content to those headings.
We have:
- Role Summary (could be About the role). Provide description: Partnerships Manager keeps sponsor relationships running day to day, activating deals, main contact, helps VP chase new business, etc.
- Key Responsibilities (list). Should go under Responsibilities heading.
- Qualifications, Education & Experience (list). Should go under Qualifications heading (maybe also Requirements?). The instruction includes Requirements and Qualifications separate. We could put qualifications under Qualifications, and maybe Requirements could be similar but we have no separate Requirements section. Could combine? But we should only include sections with real content. We have qualifications content. Could also treat "Qualifications, Education & Experience" as Qualifications. Could also have Skills section: we have skills like organized, writer/presenter, CRM knowledge, creative/adaptable, soccer knowledge, Spanish, etc. Could extract skills.
We have also mention of availability evenings, weekends, holidays, ability to lift 20+ lbs, stay on feet. That could be under Schedule? Actually schedule is about work hours; we have availability for evenings, weekends, holidays around matches and events. That's schedule info. Also physical requirement lift 20+ lbs, stay on feet. Could be under Schedule or maybe Requirements. Since we have schedule info, we can create Schedule section.
Benefits: Not mentioned. Pay: Not mentioned. So we should not include Benefits or Pay sections.
Thus sections: About the role (or Overview), Responsibilities, Qualifications, Skills, Schedule.
We need to use for each section heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the posting, but we can format them.
Let's extract content.
Overview paragraph:
"Overview Sporting Cascades FC is a new professional soccer club in Eugene, Oregon, heading into our first USL League One season. We're building it from the ground up — the team on the pitch, the club around it, and what a matchday feels like here in the Southern Willamette Valley. We're looking for ambitious, hard-working people who want to help shape a club from day one."
That's overview.
Role Summary paragraph:
"Role Summary The Partnerships Manager keeps the club's sponsor relationships running day to day — activating deals and making sure everything a partner was promised actually happens. You'll be the main contact for your accounts: the person partners trust to get things done, and the reason they renew. You'll also help the VP of Partnerships chase new business, putting together proposals and pitches."
We can combine overview and role summary into About the role section prose.
Responsibilities: list bullet points under Activation & Fulfillment, Relationship Management, Reporting & ROI, Sales Support, Cross-Functional & Game Day.
We need to preserve each bullet's content exactly (or close). Use
- .
Let's list them:
Activation & Fulfillment:
- Own the activation and fulfillment of your assigned partnerships, start to finish — make sure everything a partner was promised actually happens.
- Coordinate in-stadium signage, digital assets, broadcast integrations, and experiential activations with internal teams and vendors.
- Keep each partner account on budget.
- Keep clean records of deliverables, timelines, and communications in the CRM.
Relationship Management:
- Be the day-to-day contact for your partners, and the person they trust to get things done.
- Learn each partner's business inside out — what they sell, who they're after, and what success looks like to them.
- Run the regular touch-points: check-ins, on-site meetings, recap presentations, and strategy sessions.
Reporting & ROI:
- Build the event, mid-season, and end-of-year recaps that show partners what they got for their money.
- Track how assets actually performed — impressions, engagement, attendance, digital metrics — and put those numbers in front of partners and leadership.
- Spot upsell and cross-sell openings and bring them to the VP of Partnerships.
Sales Support:
- Help win new business with prospect research, proposals, and pitch prep.
- Feed back what you're hearing in the market to help shape packages and pricing.
- Help keep the sales pipeline and CRM current.
Cross-Functional & Game Day:
- Work with Marketing, Ticketing, Operations, and Creative to deliver on partner commitments across every channel.
- Run partner activations, VIP experiences, and promotions on matchdays — setup to teardown.
- Represent the club out in the community: partner events, community appearances, special events, and youth clinics.
- Be available evenings, weekends, and holidays for matches and events.
Note: The last bullet about availability also appears later in Qualifications; but we can keep it here as part of responsibilities.
Qualifications, Education & Experience:
List:
- Bachelor's degree in business, marketing, sports management, or a related field — or equivalent experience.
- 2–4 years in sponsorship activation, partnership management, or sales; sports industry experience preferred.
- A working knowledge of how sponsorship sales and activation actually get done.
- Highly organized, able to juggle several accounts and projects at once without dropping any.
- Strong writer and presenter, comfortable building recap decks and standing up in front of partners.
- Comfortable in a CRM (Salesforce, HubSpot, or similar) and with everyday office software — word processing, spreadsheets, and presentations.
- Creative and adaptable, with a team-first, get-it-done work ethic.
- Genuinely excited about the club's mission and core values, and about helping build it from the ground up.
- Soccer knowledge preferred; Spanish a plus.
- Available for evenings, weekends, and holidays around matches and events, and able to lift 20+ lbs and stay on your feet during matchday setup and activations.
We can split into Qualifications and Skills. Qualifications could be education/experience; Skills could be abilities.
But we need to follow instruction: Use headings like Qualifications, Skills. So we can put education/experience under Qualifications, and abilities under Skills.
Let's decide:
Qualifications (
Qualifications
):
- Bachelor's degree in business, marketing, sports management, or a related field — or equivalent experience.
- 2–4 years in sponsorship activation, partnership management, or sales; sports industry experience preferred.
- A working knowledge of how sponsorship sales and activation actually get done.
Skills (Skills

- Highly organized, able to juggle several accounts and projects at once without dropping any.

- Creative and adaptable, with a team-first, get-it-done work ethic.

- Soccer knowledge preferred; Spanish a plus.
- Available for evenings, weekends, and holidays around matches and events, and able to lift 20+ lbs and stay on your feet during matchday setup and activations.
Schedule: we have availability for evenings, weekends, holidays around matches and events (already in Skills). Could also put schedule separate: "Be available evenings, weekends, and holidays for matches and events." But we already have that. Might be redundant. Since schedule info is present, we could create Schedule section with that sentence. But we already included it in Skills. To avoid duplication, we could keep schedule separate and remove from Skills. However instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; we can include it in both places? That would be duplication but not invented. Might be okay but better to avoid duplication. Let's think: The availability appears both under Responsibilities (last bullet of Cross-Functional & Game Day) and under Qualifications. It's same info. We could keep it only once, maybe under Schedule. But we need to keep all info; if we put it only under Schedule, we still have it. So we can move that bullet to Schedule section and remove from Skills.
Thus:
Schedule (Schedule
):
- Be available evenings, weekends, and holidays for matches and events.
- Able to lift 20+ lbs and stay on your feet during matchday setup and activations.
Now Skills section will contain the remaining abilities.
Let's list Skills:
- Highly organized, able to juggle several accounts and projects at once without dropping any.
- Strong writer and presenter, comfortable building recap decks and standing up in front of partners.
- Comfortable in a CRM (Salesforce, HubSpot, or similar) and with everyday office software — word processing, spreadsheets, and presentations.
- Creative and adaptable, with a team-first, get-it-done work ethic.
- Genuinely excited about the club's mission and core values, and about helping build it from the ground up.
- Soccer knowledge preferred; Spanish a plus.
Now we need About the role section: combine overview and role summary into prose.
Let's craft a paragraph(s) using .
We'll include:

We're building it from the ground up — the team on the pitch, the club around it, and what a matchday feels like here in the Southern Willamette Valley.

You'll be the main contact for your accounts: the person partners trust to get things done, and the reason they renew. You'll also help the VP of Partnerships chase new business, putting together proposals and pitches.
That's About the role.
Now Responsibilities section: we need to include the headings Activation & Fulfillment, Relationship Management, Reporting & ROI, Sales Support, Cross-Functional & Game Day as subheadings? The instruction only says use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid additional headings inside? It says use for section headings (list). Likely they want only those top-level headings as h3. Inside we can use - and maybe for subheadings? But to preserve structure, we could keep the subheadings as inside
- or as
. However we must not create extra headings that are not in the list. Safer to keep the subheadings as plain text within - or as
. Since they didn't forbid using or . We'll just include them as part of the

Thus Responsibilities
