    What is PDL

    PDL Sports & Social Club is being built as a premium sports, hospitality, and lifestyle destination designed to bring together racquet sports, social connection, elevated Food & Beverage, and community. It is not just a sports venue and not just a restaurant operation. It is a brand experience where every touchpoint should feel intentional, energetic, polished, and aligned with a high standard of execution.

    The club is designed to combine world-class padel and pickleball with a strong hospitality platform, programming, events, and a vibrant social environment. The goal is to create a place where members and guests can train, compete, gather, dine, celebrate, and spend meaningful time in a setting that feels premium without feeling rigid.

    For the Head Pro, this means the sports role is central to the brand. Coaching quality matters, but so do punctuality, organization, safety, member care, coach development, programming discipline, cross-functional collaboration, and the ability to help shape an experience that matches the energy and ambition of PDL.

    Sports Areas Under Scope

    The Head Pro is expected to understand the purpose of each sports touchpoint and create standards that support player development, member engagement, lesson value, programming consistency, and a premium court experience.

    • Padel Program: Lessons, clinics, open play, tournaments, leagues, and private instruction, measuring the progress of the students and staff

    • To be confirmed: A flagship sports platform that should feel structured, energetic, social, and premium for members and guests across skill levels.

    • Pickleball Program: Lessons, clinics, open play, tournaments, leagues, and private instruction, measuring the progress of the students and staff

    • To be confirmed: A high-participation, community-building platform that requires excellent pacing, inclusivity, coaching consistency, and visible energy.

    • Coach Team: Head Pro leadership, coaches, instructors, and contracted teaching support as applicable

    • To be defined based on operating model: The people delivering the on-court brand. Their standards, presentation, and consistency will directly shape member trust and retention.

    • Sports Programming & Activations: Tournaments, socials, club play, branded activations, and member programming

    • Year-round calendar: A key driver of engagement, court utilization, community, and premium perception when executed with discipline and strong coordination.

    Sports Programming and Event Scope

    • Daily coaching and court activity: lessons, clinics, open play support, member engagement, and visible standards throughout the operating week.

    • Tournaments and sports events: league play, ladders, round robins, match days, and competition-driven programming where structure, timing, safety, and court flow are critical.

    • Culture building through professionalism, energy, respect, inclusivity, and pride in the work.

    • Leadership presence under pressure, especially during peak play periods, tournaments, activations, and recovery moments.

    The PDL Way cultural operations system is a golden rule, not a slogan. Every leader is expected to protect it, model it, and build it through daily actions. The Head Pro must be a culture carrier as much as a sports leader.

    • Proven +3 years leadership experience in racquet sports, academy, club, or coaching leadership roles within premium member-driven, hospitality-oriented, sports, or lifestyle environments.

    • Calm, organized leadership during peak periods, tournaments, activations, and service recovery moments.

    • A sports culture that creates professionalism, discipline, positivity, safety, and pride in the team.

    Position Summary

    Role summary. The Corporate Sales Partner (External) is responsible for developing corporate accounts, group sales, and event business opportunities that strengthen the revenue engine and market presence of PDL. This role is not only about prospecting or closing deals. It is about representing the brand in the market with credibility, discipline, and sound judgment, while ensuring that what is sold can be delivered operationally and consistently at a premium standard.

    This role works externally to create qualified demand and strategic relationships, while coordinating commercially with the CEO and operationally with the VP of Operations / Executive Manager. Success depends on building the right business, not just more business.

    What is PDL

    PDL Sports & Social Club is being built as a premium sports, hospitality, and lifestyle destination designed to bring together racquet sports, food and beverage, wellness, events, and community in one distinctive environment.

    The club combines world-class padel and pickleball with a strong hospitality platform, curated programming, and premium guest experiences. PDL is intended to feel active, social, polished, and commercially disciplined. It is not a traditional sports facility and it is not only a food and beverage concept. It is a multi-experience brand that must operate with consistency, professionalism, and energy across all touchpoints.

    For the Corporate Sales Partner (External), this means every account, group sale, and event opportunity must reflect the brand correctly. The role must help generate revenue that fits the concept, protects pricing and standards, and creates long-term value instead of short-term volume.

    Commercial Scope Under Responsibility

    The Corporate Sales Partner (External) is expected to understand the business opportunities that PDL can offer and help convert them into qualified revenue streams that match the brand and operating reality.

    • Corporate Accounts: Develop relationships with companies, leadership teams, and organizations that can generate recurring business, hospitality use, memberships, or hosted experiences.

    • Group Sales: Generate and convert group occasions connected to sports, social gatherings, team experiences, and organized activities at the club.

    • Event Business Development: Drive qualified opportunities for rooftop events, private functions, branded activations, and special event occasions aligned with PDL positioning.

    • Executive Coordination: Maintain commercial coordination with the CEO and operational coordination with the VP of Operations / Executive Manager so revenue generation stays aligned with execution capacity and brand standards.

    Event and Group Business Scope

    • Rooftop events: social gatherings, private functions, branded activations, and elevated hospitality moments that require disciplined selling and accurate alignment on experience, timing, and delivery.

    • Sports events: tournaments, leagues, team experiences, and club programming where group activity can drive revenue but must remain compatible with flow, scheduling, and guest experience.

    • Special events: corporate gatherings, celebrations, hosted experiences, and curated occasions where the event sold must fit the operational capabilities and premium positioning of PDL.

    This role must help create business that is executable, profitable, and brand-aligned. Selling events without operational realism would damage trust internally and externally, so disciplined coordination is a core part of the role.

    Key Responsibilities

    • Build and develop a qualified pipeline of corporate accounts, group sales opportunities, and event business prospects aligned with the PDL brand and revenue goals.

    • Prospect actively through outreach, networking, referrals, relationship development, market mapping, and strategic targeting rather than depending only on inbound demand.

    • Represent PDL in the market with professionalism, strong communication, disciplined follow-up, and premium brand positioning.

    • Qualify opportunities carefully so the business pursued has fit, spend potential, repeatability, and realistic delivery conditions.

    • Coordinate commercially with the CEO on market strategy, key relationships, pricing philosophy, and opportunity prioritization.

    • Coordinate operationally with the VP of Operations / Executive Manager so sold business matches execution capability, staffing realities, and service standards.

    • Protect pricing integrity, brand value, and long-term positioning by selling on value rather than discounting or overpromising.

    • Support the conversion of rooftop, sports, and special event opportunities with clear communication, disciplined handoff, and accountable follow-through.

    • Maintain a consistent weekly rhythm for prospecting, meetings, follow-up, reporting, and next-step planning.

    • Contribute to building a culture of trust between commercial generation and operations by ensuring commitments made to clients are accurate and executable.

    Values and Cultural Operating System

    • High standards in professionalism, preparation, responsiveness, and disciplined follow-through.

    • Commercial accountability with integrity, where the right business matters more than easy volume.

    • Team-first mentality with strong coordination across CEO, operations, service, bar, culinary, sports, and events.

    • Brand stewardship, where every external interaction protects the premium perception of PDL.

    • Ownership without ego, including transparency, realistic selling, and accountability for results.

    • Long-term relationship building instead of transactional behavior.

    The PDL Way cultural operating system is a golden rule, not a slogan. Every leader and external partner is expected to protect it, model it, and make decisions through it. For this role, that means generating business that strengthens the club instead of creating noise, confusion, or operational friction.

    Qualifications and Profile

    • Proven +7 years’ experience in corporate sales, business development, group sales, hospitality sales, event sales, or partnership development, ideally in premium hospitality, lifestyle, sports, club, or experiential businesses.

    • Strong ability to prospect, build a pipeline, open new relationships, and convert business without depending heavily on internal daily supervision.

    • Clear commercial judgment on account fit, opportunity quality, pricing discipline, and long-term brand value.

    • Experience coordinating across sales and operations so client promises match delivery capability.

    • Comfort operating in a build-phase environment where systems, process, and market positioning are still being refined.

    • Strong executive communication and maturity in managing coordination with both CEO and VP Operations.

    • Professional presence, relationship credibility, and confidence representing a premium brand in the market.

    • Bilingual English/Spanish preferred but not required.

    • Consistent development of qualified corporate accounts, group sales, and event business opportunities aligned with the PDL brand.

    • Clear ownership of pipeline activity, prospecting discipline, follow-up, and conversion performance.

    • High-quality market representation of PDL with professionalism, credibility, and strong relationship-building.

    • Revenue generation that protects pricing integrity, brand standards, and internal trust.

    • Event and group business sold with a realistic understanding of operational delivery and guest experience expectations.

    • Effective commercial coordination with the CEO and operational coordination with VP Operations so promises match execution.

    • A steady flow of business that supports growth without creating operational chaos or eroding the premium positioning of the club.

    Compensation and Additional Notes

    • Base compensation range: Retainer: $36,000 - $40,000

      Revenue Commission %

    • Bonus or incentive structure: Linked to qualified pipeline generation, conversion, account development, and profitable business growth.

    • Benefits: To be defined based on final external partner structure.
