Job Description

Golden State Storm LLC is the Bay Area's premier professional women's football team, competing in both tackle and flag football within the Women's National Football Conference (WNFC), which stands as one of the fastest growing women's football leagues globally. Founded in Northern California, the organization embraces the vibrant Bay Area culture and combines it with a competitive spirit and a profound sense of community pride. Golden State Storm is passionately committed to empowering women and girls through football, an arena where they have historically been underrepresented. The team not only champions gender equity in sports but also fosters innovation, excellence, and a sense of sisterhood amongst its athletes and supporters. Using every game day and event as a platform, Golden State Storm actively advances a broader movement focused on increasing visibility and investment in women's sports. Joining this organization means being part of a mission to build a lasting football legacy in the San Francisco Bay Area while contributing to the advancement of women's sports and community engagement.

The role available is that of General Manager (GM) of GameDay Activation & Operations, a key leadership volunteer position within Golden State Storm. This non-paid position requires a commitment of 6 to 8 hours per week during the football season, including on-site presence at Laney Stadium for three home games. The GM of GameDay Activation & Operations holds full ownership of the live fan experience during games. This includes managing all aspects of event execution on game day, such as the stadium layout for sponsor activations, pre-game entertainment setups, fan engagement zones, and youth clinics. The role demands intricate coordination of game day logistics, safety measures, and the efficient flow of thousands of fans to ensure a seamless and professional environment. The GM will also oversee the in-stadium production elements like the script and timing cues, ensuring smooth interaction and timing with the PA announcer, DJ, and halftime entertainment. The successful candidate will be a seasoned coordinator or event producer, noted for their capacity to manage complex live events, communicate effectively under pressure, and lead volunteer teams with confidence. This position offers an excellent opportunity for professionals passionate about women’s sports, event management, and community-driven initiatives to contribute significantly to a growing and dynamic sports organization.
