SportsWorkInSports
A long-running US sports careers platform for the business, media, coaching, and operational roles behind sports organizations.
About WorkInSports
WorkInSports specializes in employment across the US sports industry. It covers the commercial and operational work around sport as well as coaching-related opportunities, including sales, media, and event roles.
An established sports recruitment platform
iHire’s acquisition announcement, published in April 2021, documents the service’s operation since 2000 and more than 8,000 sports employers using it at that time. This is historical evidence of industry adoption, not a current employer count.
The current jobs page includes positions from Morgan Murphy Media, TicketManager, and Kansas City NFL Flag. The employer offering includes job advertising and résumé search, with sports-specific candidate information alongside figures for the wider iHire network.
What to compare
Ask about access to sports candidates in your particular function, the number of active job slots, and the billing commitment. Advertising, résumé access, and broader recruitment services may serve different needs. A public starting price was not confirmed for this review.
Our take
WorkInSports is worth considering for jobs in the sports business, particularly when prior experience with teams, events, or sports media is useful. Its scope extends well beyond playing and coaching. Check the number of relevant candidates for your function rather than using the size of the entire iHire network as a proxy. A ticket-sales role and a performance-analysis vacancy need different audiences.
