THE PATHWAY JOBS NEWSLETTER
Hello Pathwayers! 👋
Although new job postings may slow down during the holidays there are still 80+ new jobs for you to review today. Get in.
For those of you that are new, each week we spend hours scouring job boards to source and share the most interesting new jobs in soccer (with an emphasis on the U.S. and North America). Whether the job is working for a club, a league, a federation, an agency, an apparel brand, it doesn’t matter - if there’s a new job opportunity working in soccer, we’re going to do our best to find it and share it here.
This jam-packed newsletter hits inboxes every Friday.
Did you spot a job that we need to include or have feedback on the newsletter? Drop us an email!
NOTE: The Pathway team is taking next Friday off, but we’ll be back with a whole bunch of new jobs on Friday, Jan. 5. Have a wonderful holiday and new year! 🎉
