Sponsorship Integration Manager | Gaming, Esports & Live Events

Contract: 14 months, with potential 3-month extension

About the Opportunity

We are recruiting an experienced Sponsorship Integration Manager to support a major international gaming and esports festival programme in Saudi Arabia.

This is an exciting opportunity for a sponsorship activation professional with proven experience transforming brand sponsorship commitments into engaging, fully operational live-event experiences.

The successful candidate will play a key role in coordinating sponsor activations, managing deliverables and ensuring sponsorship activities are successfully integrated into the wider festival programme.

This is a hands-on sponsorship activation and integration role, rather than a sponsorship sales or business development position.

Key Responsibilities

• Act as the main coordination point for the delivery and integration of assigned sponsorship activation programmes.
• Translate sponsor entitlements into engaging, practical activation concepts aligned with festival objectives.
• Develop detailed activation plans covering audience engagement, space requirements, visitor throughput, staffing and operational delivery.
• Coordinate sponsor deliverables, approval processes, timelines and outstanding requirements.
• Ensure all activations comply with brand guidelines, event layouts and operational constraints.
• Work closely with event planning, creative, production and operational teams to integrate sponsorship activities.
• Coordinate sponsor branding, space allocation and technical or build requirements through the appropriate project teams.
• Manage changes to sponsorship activation plans and resolve delivery challenges.
• Maintain accurate activation schedules, progress trackers and stakeholder updates.

Essential Requirements

• Minimum 8 years' relevant experience in sponsorship activation planning or integration for large-scale live events, gaming, esports or festivals.
• Proven experience delivering at least two live event seasons.
• Demonstrated hands-on experience personally developing and delivering sponsorship activations.
• Strong understanding of sponsorship entitlements, brand activation requirements and event integration.
• Experience planning activation layouts, staffing, audience flow and operational requirements.
• Ability to manage multiple stakeholders, timelines, approvals and deliverables.
• Strong organisational, problem-solving and project coordination skills.
• Professional English communication skills.

Desirable Experience

• Experience delivering sponsorship activations for major international or global brands.
• Background in major esports tournaments, gaming festivals, sporting events or large-scale entertainment programmes.
• Experience coordinating multiple sponsor activations within complex event environments.
• Previous experience working in Saudi Arabia or the GCC.
• Arabic language skills.

Working Arrangements

Two potential working arrangements are available:

• Riyadh-based: Working from the project office, with relocation and visa support subject to agreed terms.
• Remote-based: Working Sunday to Thursday on Riyadh business hours, with required travel to Saudi Arabia.

All candidates must be available onsite in Riyadh during the required festival operating periods in July-August and November 2027.

This is a full-time, fixed-term opportunity requiring dedicated involvement throughout the engagement.

How to Apply

If you have a strong background in sponsorship activation, brand experiences and major live-event delivery, we would like to hear from you.
