To us it is so much more than just a game or concert. It takes all the members of our Spurs team to harness the power of sports and entertainment to create moments that excite, memories that endure, and connections that strengthen our community. SS&E owns and operates the San Antonio Spurs (NBA), Austin Spurs (NBA G-League), and the San Antonio FC (USL), and manages day-to-day operations of the Frost Bank Center, Toyota Field and STAR Complex.

Do you thrive on creating experiences that connect people, spark emotion, and build community around a world-class brand? The San Antonio Spurs are looking for an Experiential Marketing Manager to help bring our vision to life across the Austin region and beyond.
 As a key member of the Strategic Growth and Marketing team, you’ll lead efforts to expand the Spurs’ presence in Central and South Texas developing immersive events, influencer collaborations, and community activations that embody the creativity and culture of Austin. From large-scale tentpoles like Spurs Week and the Spurs Austin International Half Marathon to grassroots programs that reach fans where they live, work, and play, you’ll shape how the Spurs brand shows up in this vibrant market while contributing to global initiatives in Mexico and France, key markets in our international growth strategy.
 Success in this role requires a self-starter with a diverse skill set, someone equally comfortable dreaming big and diving into details, who can pivot seamlessly between strategic planning, creative execution, and on-the-ground problem solving. You’re resourceful, proactive, and thrive in fast-moving, cross-functional environments where initiative and versatility drive results.
 Based in Austin, TX (with occasional travel to San Antonio), you’ll collaborate across Marketing, Partnerships, and Community teams to deliver experiences that deepen fan connection, capture data, and strengthen regional impact. You will also oversee the Spurs Street Team, a dynamic group of brand ambassadors who activate across Austin to drive awareness, engagement, and lead generation. The ideal candidate is a strategic storyteller and hands-on doer, someone who can think globally, execute locally, and bring the spirit of the Spurs to life across cultures and communities.

<li>Work collaboratively with key internal departments including Marketing/Brand, Partnerships, Impact, Digital, Content, Creative, and Analytics on a consistent basis on Austin key initiative and growth strategies, as well as global and international efforts that align with the Spurs’ broader brand expansion to implement and recap strategy tactics, and external stakeholders to maximize each events’ experience and ensure seamless data ingestion for later use.</li>
<li>Oversee, train and hire event marketing team(s), to include potential part-time in-office representative(s), and Street Team staff located in Austin, ensuring consistent brand presence at experiential marketing & grassroot opportunities that align with both regional and global activations.</li>
