A dream job vacancy has arisen in the U.S. with Proper Twelve, the whiskey brand founded by sports superstar Conor Mcgregor. As per the job-specific website (https://workforconormcgregor.com/), the role on offer is that of 'Proper Ambassador' – a full-time, multi-tasking representative of the brand both in person and online.
And, if you've admired Conor's progress from a 2013 newcomer in the UFC to multi-weight champion and hugely successful businessman, you'll be glad to know that the role involves reporting to Mr Mcgregor himself. That's right – an opportunity to not only build your experience with a young, fast-growing drinks brand but also gain direct contact with Conor, an elite athlete of course but also a master in brand building, promotion and deal-making. The self-proclaimed 'champ champ' made his name with his ruthless dominance of top level fighters but it was the addition of his charisma and business acumen which created a driving force in building the UFC in to the mainstream sports powerhouse it is today.
In the role of Proper Ambassador (also described as a 'Professional Partier' on the company's press release), you'll be feeding back to Conor about your success in introducing new customers to the brand through 'hosting fight night viewing parties and bar events, creating new cocktails, and trying your hand at running Proper No. Twelve's social channels'. See Below For the Full Job Description.
