The Ultimate Fighting Championship Looking For A New CRM Marketing Manager

               The UFC, also known as the Ultimate Fighting Championship, has posted a job opening on the MMA Jobs website and are looking for a new CRM Marketing Manager. They open their job posting by talking about how the UFC is the biggest brand in the fastest growing sport ever, and that they are looking for people who enjoy the sport and want to be a part of its growth. The posting says that the position duties 

include developing and managing all marketing initiatives dealing with their events, their online store, their own TV network and gyms, as well as their fitness training program.

               The essential job functions include things from marketing ticket sales for all of their events, long term plans and strategies, and also work on target market customer marketing. They also have quite a long list of qualifications that need to be met as well. These qualifications include things such as 5 – 8 years of experience in planning, executing and analyzing marketing programs and campaigns, marketing degree and additional experience in the business field, geographical and international team building skills, proficient with 

Microsoft Office, and excellent communication and presentational skills.

               To my surprise, they also had physical requirements that must be able to be met. These requirements include being able to frequently sit, talk, walk, type and hear for long periods of time, must have the full ability to use hands and fingers (yes, that is actually a requirement of this position!), and also the ability to lift and move at least 30 lbs.

     

          It also says that all Zuffa (the UFC’s parent company) employees receive a top notch benefits package that include medical, dental, vision, LTD, life, supplemental life, short-term disability coverage as well as a 401(k) plan.

I thought that this was a great example of using E-Marketing to market a job for marketing! The layout of the posting was very neat and professional looking, and was very easy to read and understand. Here is the link to the job posting online, for those of you wish to see the posting and requirements in their entirety:
