At Buffalo Soldiers, we :
take our business seriously, but not ourselves
believe intelligence, attitude, and energy often trump experience
Love chess as much as you love managing chaos?
We’re looking for someone who can juggle clients, teams, and tight deadlines — and still know the difference between a Sicilian Defense and a Queen’s Gambit.
If you can talk strategy both on the chessboard and in a client meeting, this gig’s for you.
What You’ll Do :
Be the bridge between our clients and internal teams — own the communication, coordination, and calm.
Manage all things chess — events, campaigns, shoots, and last-minute “can we do this by tomorrow?” moments.
Translate vague client thoughts into actionable briefs (and actual deliverables).
Keep track of timelines, deliverables, and expectations — all without losing your sanity.
Work closely with our creative, design, and production folks to make sure magic happens.
Basically — ensure things move, people deliver, and clients smile.
What You Bring to the Table :
1–3 years of experience in account management / program management / client servicing (agency or sports background is a plus).
Deep love for chess — you know the game, the players, and the buzz.
Excellent communication, multitasking, and people skills (you know how to get things done).
Cool under pressure and quick on your feet — you don’t panic when the clock’s ticking.
Available to start yesterday (okay, or ASAP).
Bonus Points If You :
Have worked on sports or esports campaigns before.
Have on-ground event experience.
Can explain the Caro-Kann in under 30 seconds.
