What are the responsibilities and job description for the Game Day Operations Specialist position at Jump?
Company Overview:
Jump is the only end-to-end fan experience platform built for sports teams and venues, breaking the mold for what fans can expect at live events.
Jump’s enterprise software enables sports teams and venues to unlock the massive opportunities that come from real relationships with their fans, rethinking the traditional model that hasn’t put the fan experience first.

We are a remote first team that grounds our actions and decisions in our core values — begin with trust, play like the underdog, and do your thing. Living our values means that we always assume positive intent, show up with authenticity and empathy, and push the limit of what is possible with our collective creativity.
We’re actively recruiting for smart, tenacious, adaptable, and most importantly kind people to join our team!
