  • Accountability : Maintain Prep Network’s standards for professionalism, safety, and inclusivity throughout each event.
  • Manage : Direct event staff, schedules, and communication to deliver a high-quality participant experience.
  • Achieve : Maintain a score of 9 or higher on the event scorecard, demonstrating consistent excellence and event quality.

Must-Haves in a Candidate

  • Experience in event management, operations, or sports administration.
  • Strong organizational and leadership skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities under pressure.
  • Effectively and proactively communicate with all stakeholders—including event staff, participants, and the Event Operations Team—to ensure alignment and smooth execution.
  • Anticipate challenges and identify creative, effective solutions under pressure.
  • Take ownership of outcomes and hold event staff to Prep Network’s standards for quality and professionalism.
  • Operate independently with initiative, reliability, and follow-through.
  • Continuously look for ways to improve event quality, efficiency, and the overall participant experience.
  • Treat each Prep Network event as their own, striving for excellence and ensuring every event reflects positively on both the company and their personal reputation.
  • Work Eligibility

    Prep Network is engaging contractors who are authorized to work in the United States and can accept payment through the U.S. banking and tax system (Form 1099-NEC).

  • Impact at Scale : Shape the experience of hundreds of thousands of athletes and coaches—making every event you lead both memorable and rewarding.
