DO YOU WANT TO CLIMB THE MOUNTAIN?
In any industry, you will find professionals who are content with camping at a certain level of development. You’ll also find a rare breed that are never content and look to continually learn and grow. At the Pacers, we pride ourselves on seeking out “climbers” to be a part of our team.
Specifically, we’re looking for future legends that are looking to get drafted and start their professional career. We are hiring in our ticket sales department very soon, and if you want to be the best and be a part of something special that is on the rise, the Pacers are the team for you.
TRAIN LIKE A CHAMPION
Whether your name is Tyrese Haliburton or you work in our Ticket Sales Department, the Pacers believe in constant improvement. We believe in training, training and more training – we ARE talking about practice! Our management team will be working with you every step of the way to ensure you become a champion.
You’ll be mentored by a management team that has a combined 30+ years of sports sales and management experience. Spencer Anderson (Director of Consumer Sales), Greg Breiner (Senior Director of Premium Sales & Consumer Sales), Kyle Krol (Director of Corporate Ticket Sales), and Justin Ramquist (Vice President of Ticket Sales) will be conducting your training and teaching you everything you need to know to perform at a high level. Additionally, you’ll have support from an accomplished senior management team including one Sports Business Journal Forty Under 40 Award Winner (Todd Taylor - President of Business Operations) and another architect of the longest sellout streak in professional sports history (Barry Gibson – Executive Vice President of Ticket Sales, Experience, and Strategy).
THE GAMEPLAN
This is a phenomenal launching point to begin your career in sports ticket sales. You'll be making phone calls, scheduling meetings, and attending events with qualified Pacers ticket prospects to sell them ticket packages. You’ll develop and manage relationships while providing outstanding customer service both over the phone and on game nights. The majority of your time will be spent in the office where our culture is the strongest, but you may work various community and in-arena events, along with all of our 41+ home games. We don’t expect you to already understand how to sell tickets. We’ll provide you with first class training and support to help you be successful.
This is a one-year entry-level position with an anticipated start date in January 2025 (exact date to be determined).
