About the role

Learfield IMG College seeks a seasoned Naming Rights Vice President to lead business development for naming rights across its collegiate properties. You will work with Athletic Directors and university leadership to identify, create, and close transformational sponsorship opportunities. Ideal candidates bring 15+ years in sponsorship sales, extensive Fortune 500 networks, and a proven ability to drive large-scale deals through a collaborative, executive-level approach.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
