We’re hiring a Player Development & Partnerships Manager to build relationships with Pikkit’s most engaged users and the leading operators in the industry. You’ll create partnerships and opportunities that benefit both our users and our partners. This role sits at the intersection of community, partnerships, and business development, and you’ll have the opportunity to build an entirely new function within the company.
At Pikkit, we’re building the home for sports betting.
Today, we’re a social sports betting app with over 1 million users, 20,000+ five-star reviews, and more than $30B in legal U.S. sports wagers tracked through our app. We’re featured in industry reports from Citizens Bank, Houlihan Lokey, SBC, and more, and backed by top-tier VCs including Founder Collective, Baukunst, and Matrix.
We’re a team of ~15, all in-person at our Flatiron NYC office. We move fast, ship high-quality product, care deeply about sports fans, and don’t take ourselves too seriously. 😊
This is a unique role that combines community building, partnerships, and business development.
You’ll be responsible for growing relationships with Pikkit’s most engaged users while working with leading partners’ player development teams to create programs and acquisition opportunities that benefit both sides. You’ll own this initiative from the ground up, helping define the strategy, build the relationships, and scale the program over time.
