    Own the outcome

    Culture: We attract the best and brightest professionals by nurturing core ideals such as character, hard work, discipline, and teamwork. We reward performances and demand a total commitment to excellence and a will to win in everything that we choose to do.

    Basic Function:

    The Brand Marketing Manager will lead the strategy, execution, and optimization of integrated marketing and advertising efforts across both the Houston Texans and LOVB brands, balancing the scale of an established NFL franchise with the growth demands of an emerging league. This role requires a strategic, resourceful leader who can drive high-impact campaigns across TV, radio, print, and out-of-home (OOH) channels while uncovering untapped opportunities, developing innovative ideas, and maximizing partnerships to extend reach. For the Houston Texans, the focus includes identifying "hidden gems" and evolving existing initiatives, while for LOVB, it demands a scrappy, entrepreneurial mindset to create opportunities, leverage trade and barter, and build a fan base that grows exponentially year over year, all while collaborating cross-functionally to deliver measurable results and meaningful fan connections.
