Corporate Sports Sales (Entry Level)

Corporate Sports Sales (Entry Level) – Recent College Grads, College Athletes and Early Career Men & Women Encouraged to Apply!

Our projected in-office training will be conducted in early-April; if you will be relocating in the future or are not available in that time frame for full time employment in our Downtown Milwaukee office, please check out our website for future employment opportunities: www.ism-usa.com

About Us:

For over 28 years, International Sports Management (ISM) has become the global leader in the provisioning of upscale corporate hospitality and ticketing programs at major sporting events like the Super Bowl, Final Four, U.S. Open, and many more by putting our customers and our amazing team first. The values we live by at ISM are: GENUINE, RESPECT, INTEGRITY, TEAMWORK and TENACITY.

Now more than ever before, companies of all shapes and sizes are investing in these upcoming events at record levels with the singular motivation of building even further upon their most important resources: their employees and customers. This is evidenced by not the Company as a whole setting new annual revenue records 4 consecutive years running, but also with one of our National Sales Offices, located right here in Milwaukee, coming off their own 1-year sales record in 2024 and off to their fastest start to the year ever in 2025!

And with an even greater sense of optimism in place, we are seeking out others who share that same positive spirit, have a tremendous work ethic to match, and exhibit an insatiable desire to learn, grow and advance their own professional endeavors. If you believe that these characteristics represent what you are looking for, while also being interested in simultaneously earning large, uncapped commissions and bonuses while doing so, then our team should meet you!

We are currently looking to add a total of 2 new team members to our office located in Downtown Milwaukee…individuals who are seeking to either begin or continue their careers with the perfect balance of sports & sales in a Business-to-Business inside sales role as our newest National Account Executives.

The first 6 months will be a mix of training & mentoring, working right alongside both our National Sales Manager as well as our Senior Vice President. You’ll be shown how to generate new business partnerships by calling executives with companies based across the U.S. and selling packages to Major Golf Championships like the Presidents Cup Matches and PGA Championship, while also having access to future non-golf events like the NCAA Basketball Tournament, Kentucky Derby, Formula 1 Racing, the Men’s World Cup Tournament and many more. Strong and polished communication skills are required, as you will be delivering a dynamic presentation over the phone to Vice Presidents, Presidents, and CEOs of multi-million (and billion) dollar companies. 

This is not a telemarketing or customer service position, and those job seekers searching for a role in that capacity won’t find this a match.

Promotion into sales & account management within a steepened but manageable learning curve will be the expectation as we will be vigorously growing the Milwaukee sales division in the coming months. We only look to fill new leadership positions from within, as managers are responsible for demonstrating a degree of guidance and coaching to their new staff just like they initially received, while also adding their own approach. Our sales management is the best in the industry, and they work right alongside their teams in a “Player/Coach” capacity…teaching what they do and doing what they teach.

What We Provide:

• Comprehensive initial training along with continuous mentoring
• Base salary commission, uncapped
• Bonuses, both cash & prize (monthly, quarterly & annually)
• Initial, new sales leads are provided from corporate database subscriptions (D&B Hoovers, Zoominfo, etc.) which you will develop and manage within our Salesforce CRM platform (we will also teach you how to further develop those and other quality leads while not being constricted to a certain geographic area or industry)
• Company partially paid downtown parking for all staff
• Opportunity to work from home one day a week after your first 6 months
• Company medical/dental plans and 401K enrollment with a company match
• Three weeks paid vacation in your first year of eligibility and off all major holidays (there were over 4 weeks paid off last year for all eligible staff)
• First year earnings avg. range of $50K-$70K  (range includes salary commission), Year two $85K
• Growth opportunities for management and/or national & international transfer within the first 8-12 months
• Volunteer participation in our “ISM Giving Back” program promoting activities and donations (with matching company contributions) with local charitable organizations

 What We’re Looking For:

• Bachelor’s degree (Business preferred but not required)
• Dedicated, driven individuals with a strong work ethic
• Outstanding verbal and written communication skills
• Perseverance to tackle new concepts along a steep learning curve
• High motivation to succeed and grow into an expanded role
• Ability to explain how a deficiency in one of the above categories will not hinder you from succeeding
