Program & Marketing Coordinator

Responsive recruiter Soccer Shots is an engaging children’s soccer program focused on character development and fun for children ages 18 months through elementary school age. Our caring team positively impacts children’s lives on and off the field through best-in-class coaching, curriculum, and communication. Our mission is "to provide a beloved growth experience for every child and a remarkable experience for every family."

Position Summary We’re looking for a Program & Marketing Coordinator to join our Memphis Operations Team. This is a full-time role designed for a motivated, organized, and people-oriented professional who thrives outside the office—building relationships, supporting coaches, and engaging with community partners.

This position blends program coordination, community engagement, and marketing execution with a strong focus on partner relationships and field support. You’ll spend most of your time in the community—visiting schools, attending marketing events, coaching, and supporting coaches—while also contributing to operations, planning, and coordination behind the scenes.

The ideal candidate is scrappy, adaptable, and driven—someone who takes initiative, finds creative solutions, and isn’t afraid to roll up their sleeves to get the job done. You’ll be cross-trained in all departments and play a hands-on role in ensuring Soccer Shots programs run smoothly, our brand continues to grow locally, and our coaching team is supported and successful.
