About
The Rolex SailGP Championship is the most exciting racing on water, where anything can happen in short, adrenaline-fueled battles between national teams at iconic stadium destinations worldwide. Top athletes fly in identical high-tech F50 catamarans faster than the wind, at speeds in excess of 100km/h (60mph). Founded in 2018, SailGP is one of the world’s fastest-growing sports and entertainment properties, now in its sixth season.
SailGP also races for a better future, championing a world powered by nature. Underpinning the organization’s purpose-driven agenda is a diversification of the league, with the goal of immediately progressing gender equity and inclusivity.
Role Overview
The Infrastructure Coordinator plays a vital dual role within the Infrastructure team. Combining core administrative support with junior project and programme coordination, this role ensures the department operates efficiently day-to-day while maintaining strong alignment with SailGP’s central planning frameworks.
This position is ideal for an organised, proactive administrator looking to step up and build a career in programme coordination. You will take full ownership of essential department admin - focusing heavily on procurement support and team travel - while maintaining the operational "drumbeat" of the team. Working closely with the Infrastructure Director, you will manage weekly meeting agendas, track deliverables on Monday.com, and ensure the team hits its key One Event Plan (OEP) milestones.
