Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Own the sponsorship activation strategy and integrated plan tied to clear goals (brand impact, community engagement, pipeline influence).
  • Manage the day-to-day partnership with Crystal Palace as a primary relationship owner for Temporal.
  • Run regular operating cadences (planning meetings, weekly check-ins in-season, pre/post-event reviews).
  • Own the shared activation roadmap, timelines, and approvals process across both organizations.
  • Coordinate rights inventory planning and utilization (e.g., player/talent access, creative usage, matchday assets, content moments, community initiatives).
  • Ensure deliverables are executed against contractual expectations and that both sides are clear on responsibilities, deadlines, and escalation paths.
  • Develop joint go-to-market style plans with Crystal Palace stakeholders where relevant (co-marketing moments, community programs, partner/customer experiences), while ensuring Temporal’s brand and audience stay at the center.
  • Design and deliver standout experiential activations in partnership with Crystal Palace (matchday moments, community programs, content-led experiences, partner/customer moments).
  • Lead field marketing + hospitality planning and execution (hosted events, executive/customer hosting, curated experiences) with strong operational rigor.
  • Build and manage the seasonal activation calendar (pre-season, in-season tentpoles, key fixtures, transfer windows, playoffs/cups, etc.).
  • Coordinate cross-functionally to ensure activations are “fully integrated” (content, PR, paid, email, social, SDR follow-up, partner channels).
  • Manage agency and vendor partners (experiential, creative production, event vendors, merchandise, venues) and ensure high-quality execution.
  • Track performance and report outcomes with a strong measurement approach (attribution where possible; directional influence where not).
  • Steward the Temporal brand in high-visibility environments and ensure we show up in a way that’s authentic to developers and the broader market.
