Ticket Sales Manager

The opportunity

Help build the fan base for a new professional baseball team. OC Baseball Club (OCBC) is preparing to launch in Irvine, California, as an independent team in the Pioneer Baseball League. This is a rare opportunity to build ticket sales and operations from the ground up and help create a new community tradition.

OCBC is part of Innovation Baseball Partners (IBP), the ownership and operating group behind the successful launches of the Oakland Ballers and Long Beach Coast. The Ticket Sales Lead will draw on IBP's shared resources and expertise while building relationships throughout Irvine and Orange County.

Reporting to the Team President, you will drive ticket revenue, lead the ticketing staff, and manage ticket sales and box office operations. You will personally prospect and close business while equipping the team to meet its goals. Before Opening Day, you will lead ticketing readiness; during the season, you will ensure fans can purchase tickets, enter the ballpark, and receive excellent service.
