About the role

The San Diego Gulls, the AHL affiliate of the Anaheim Ducks, are hiring a full-time Account Executive for their season ticket sales team. The job is to sell Gulls season memberships, partial plans, and hospitality spaces to local businesses and fans.

Most of the week goes to finding new buyers. You make cold and warm calls, send emails, go to networking events, and follow up on referrals, and you log every contact and lead in Salesforce. The Manager, Ticket Sales sets a weekly prospecting target, and you work toward personal and team sales goals.

On game nights you staff the sales table to meet fans and find new buyers, and you help at membership events. The partial season accounts you sell stay with you, so you also look after those buyers through the season.
