Account Manager - Sports

If you’re fascinated by sports cards and memorabilia, your search ends here. Arena Club is pioneering the collectibles domain by introducing the first-ever digital card show. Spearheaded by 5x World Series Champion Derek Jeter and serial entrepreneur Brian Lee, Arena Club has developed a fully digital marketplace. This innovative platform is built on trust, transparency, and fun, featuring grading & authentication, vaulting, and digital pack openings for collectors to build and showcase their collections in a personalized online showroom from anywhere in the world.

We are seeking an Account Manager to build and grow a network of partners who can supply inventory for our Slab Pack product. You don’t need to be a card expert — we’ll teach you. What matters most is strong people skills, sales instincts, a great work ethic, and the ability to build trust quickly.

This role balances hunting and nurturing. You’ll meet new partners, support existing ones, travel to shows, and partner with marketing to make sure our inventory aligns with what customers want.

• Build, manage, and deepen relationships with sports card sellers, vendors, and partners.
• Identify, recruit, and onboard new sellers into the Arena Club ecosystem.
• Attend local and national card shows to source inventory and expand partner relationships.
• Partner with Marketing to align supply with product performance and customer demand.
• Support partners in improving workflow, consistency, and volume.
• Collaborate with Operations to ensure seamless processing, payouts, logistics, and timelines.
• Track partner performance with precision, including spend, card counts, volume, and weekly output.
• Represent Arena Club with professionalism, energy, and a relationship-first mindset.

• 2–5 years of experience in sales, account management, partnerships, or other relationship-driven roles.
• Highly personable, with the ability to build trust and rapport quickly.
• Passion for major sports and a willingness to learn additional categories including soccer, hockey, MMA, and wrestling.
• Strong attention to detail with the ability to track spend, inventory, and deal accuracy without errors.
• Strong work ethic and comfort operating in fast-moving, ambiguous environments.
• Excellent communication, organization, and follow-through.
• Willingness to travel frequently for shows and partner visits.
• No card experience required; eagerness and coachability are essential.

Life at Arena Club isn’t for the faint of heart — and that’s by design. We’re building products and experiences the collectibles world has never seen. This is a proving ground. It demands your best every single day, because anything less means you’re falling behind.

From day one, you’re in the game. Trusted to deliver, expected to own outcomes, and driven to raise the bar higher than you thought possible. We don’t just execute — we innovate, compete, and win together.

If you want routine or predictability, you won’t find it here. But if you’re ambitious, relentless, and hungry to prove yourself on a team built to dominate — step into the arena. You’ll discover growth and reward here, unlike anywhere else.
