The posting

Our client, the Indiana Sports Corp, is expanding its leadership team and adding a VP of Strategy!

Indiana has never thought small when it comes to sports. For more than four decades, Indiana Sports Corp has helped establish Indianapolis and Indiana as one of the country’s most respected destinations for major sporting events. Now, through our 2050 Vision, we are building on that legacy with an ambitious goal: to make Indiana the global epicenter of sports.

We are seeking a Vice President of Strategy to help turn that vision into action. This is not a strategy role built around creating plans that sit on a shelf. The VP of Strategy will work closely with the President, leadership team, Board, and partners across Indiana to establish priorities, translate long-term vision into executable initiatives, measure progress, and keep a complex network of stakeholders moving in the same direction.

What You'll Lead

  • Lead the ongoing implementation and evolution of Indiana Sports Corp's 2050 Vision.
  • Translate long-range strategy into clear priorities, initiatives, milestones, and measures of success.
  • Advise the President and leadership team on enterprise-wide strategic priorities and opportunities.
  • Create the structure and discipline needed to move major cross-functional initiatives from concept to execution.
  • Develop frameworks and analysis that support decisions about new opportunities, partnerships, and investments.
  • Coordinate work across internal teams and external stakeholders without creating unnecessary bureaucracy.
  • Establish meaningful measures of progress and communicate results to leadership, the Board and key partners.
  • Help Indiana Sports Corp anticipate changes in the sports industry and identify opportunities for Indiana to lead rather than follow.
  • Build alignment across a broad ecosystem that includes sports organizations, business leaders, government, academia, community partners, and other stakeholders.

What You’ll Bring

We are looking for a strategic leader who is equally comfortable thinking about the next 25 years and what needs to happen next Monday. Our top candidates will bring significant experience in strategy, business operations, organizational leadership, consulting, sports, entertainment, major events, economic development, or another environment requiring complex stakeholder leadership.

You may have held a title such as Vice President of Strategy, Chief Strategy Officer, Chief of Staff, Vice President of Business Operations, Vice President of Strategic Initiatives, or Senior Director of Strategy. More important than the title is your ability to take an ambitious vision and create focus, alignment, and measurable progress.

The ideal candidates will demonstrate:

  • Exceptional strategic and analytical thinking.
  • A track record of turning ideas into executable plans.
  • Strong executive presence and communication skills.
  • Comfort working with Boards, senior executives, and community leaders.
  • The ability to influence across organizational boundaries.
  • Sound judgment and an ability to bring clarity to complex issues.
  • Genuine curiosity about the changing business of sports.
  • A collaborative, low-ego leadership style.

Direct sports-industry experience is valuable but not required. Experience working in a highly collaborative sports, events, civic, or community ecosystem will be particularly relevant.

Why Indiana Sports Corp

Indiana Sports Corp's mission is to unleash Indiana's potential through sports. Our 2050 Vision extends beyond event hosting to include sports events, sports technology, sports academia, sports business leadership, and women's sports.

This role offers a rare opportunity to help shape not simply the future of an organization, but the next chapter of Indiana's sports strategy. Indiana Sports Corp offers a competitive executive compensation and benefits package. Indiana Sports Corp is an equal opportunity employer and welcomes candidates with diverse backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives.
