Jobs in Sports

What Jobs in Sports does

JobsInSports.com (legally Jobs In Sports, LLC, a Florida-domiciled private LLC) operates a specialized vertical job board connecting sports industry employers with job seekers. The platform is a web-based, self-serve marketplace offering searchable listings organized across 15+ job categories (sports marketing, sales, media, coaching, administration, health/fitness, etc.), sport types (MLB, NBA, NFL, NHL, MLS, NCAA, etc.), and geographies spanning the four U.S. regions plus international locations in Africa, Australia, Canada, Central/South America, Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and Oceania. Core products include the main job board, "The Network" professional directory, email-based job alerts, and dedicated sports internship listings.

The business model is primarily a consumer subscription model on the demand side: job seekers pay for membership access in tiered formats ranging from a $9.95 7-day pass to a $99.95 6-month bundle ($19.95 monthly, $59.95 3-month), with auto-renewal enabled. Employer-side job posting and candidate database access constitute the secondary revenue stream, though pricing for employer subscriptions is not publicly disclosed. Customer acquisition relies on content marketing via a blog, free weekly email job alerts, and word-of-mouth. Select employer logos cited in user testimonials (ESPN, FOX Sports Net, Seattle Mariners, San Jose Giants) reflect successful placements rather than disclosed paying enterprise contracts. The company reports 7,976 active employers, 5,456 open listings, and 1,014 available internships, with 89% of surveyed employers describing members as "pre-qualified."

Technically, the platform is a conventional web-based job board with a candidate database and listing management system. Differentiated features include an "Active Candidate Recommendation" service that pushes candidates to prominent employers and a "Weekly Verify" program intended to maintain listing freshness. Website design, development, and maintenance are outsourced to Oyova Software. The firm does not maintain a mobile app, public API, or disclosed AI/ML capabilities, and operates with a 1-10 employee headcount from a Jacksonville Beach, Florida mailing address. No institutional funding rounds, M&A activity, or leadership changes are disclosed in the available data.
