Front Office Sports is the leading multiplatform media brand at the intersection of sports, business, and culture. We tell the stories that power the industry—what happens off the field that drives what fans see on it.
We’re looking for a Social Graphic Designer who thrives in the speed of real-time storytelling and understands how to translate complex sports business narratives into visually compelling, scroll-stopping content.
You’ll be responsible for creating high-impact, social-first graphics that bring Front Office Sports’ journalism to life across platforms like Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, X, LinkedIn, and YouTube.

You’ll work closely with our social, editorial, and video teams to ensure every visual feels sharp, timely, and unmistakably FOS.
