VIP New Business Associate (TX)

Department: Marketing
At Underdog, we make sports more fun.
Our thesis is simple: build the best product for sports fans and we will win the space. Founded in 2020, were one of the fastest-growing sports companies ever, and there’s still so much left to do. Weve built and scaled products across fantasy sports, sports betting, and prediction markets, all united in one app that’s seamless, intuitive, and actually fun to use.
Underdog isn’t for everyone. One of our core values is give a sh*t. The people who win here are the ones who care, push, and perform. We’re remote-first by design, but highly collaborative with regular in-person gatherings that help teams build, iterate, and move fast together.
Got that dog in you? Join us.
After all, winning as an Underdog is more fun.
What youll do:

- Apply Underdogs VIP policies and guidelines, with responsible gaming as a first principle in every interaction
Who you are:

- You take initiative without being told what to work on, and you follow through until theres a result
- You write and speak clearly, and you build real rapport with people youve just met
