We are Hiring! Sponsorship Coordinator Job Opening

11th Hour Racing’s mission is to foster connections for healthy sea, land, and people and invest in innovative, sustainable solutions for the health of the ocean and our communities. We inspire positive actions through sport, shape vision about what is possible through storytelling, and catalyze impact through strategic grant-making.

We use the power of sport to sell sustainability instead of products. By sponsoring organizations and events interested in reducing their environmental impact, we enable them to become leaders in ocean health. Our sponsorships provide funds, tools, and resources to empower with a focus on sport, strategic innovation, and sustainable technologies. We place a strong emphasis on the connection between land and water — because what happens on land affects our ocean and waterways. We are looking for a truly exceptional person to assist with 11th Hour Racing’s sponsorships through a portfolio covering a spectrum of sailing teams, events, as well as marine industry, and community partners.
