With the FIFA World Cup 26™ on the horizon, Octagon is assembling a roster of event, production, and hospitality pros ready to deliver unforgettable experiences for fans and brands alike.

If you’re passionate about creating world-class experiences and want to be considered for upcoming projects for a once-in-a-generation experience shaping the future of sports and entertainment in North America, we want to hear from you!

Ideal candidates are team-oriented, communicative, adaptable, and eager to contribute to an unforgettable global event experience.

As a priority, we're looking for candidates currently in Octagon Office locations (Atlanta, Charlotte, Chicago, Los Angeles, Miami, New York City, Stamford) or in FIFA Host Cities (Boston, Dallas, Houston, Kansas City, Philadelphia, Seattle, San Francisco). Remote candidates currently living outside of these listed cities will also be considered but will be required to be relocated (Octagon provided) to a Host City for the games

What We Offer

Recognized as one of the “Best Places to Work in Sports”, Octagon is the global sports, entertainment, and experiential marketing arm of the Interpublic Group.

We take pride in being Playmakers – finding insightful, bold ways to create play in our work, our lives, and in the world. We believe in the power of play to create big ideas and unlock potential for our clients and talent.

We can put ourselves in the shoes of fans because we ARE fans – of sports, entertainment, and culture at large. This expertise allows us to continually evolve the fan experience across sports and entertainment alongside some of the biggest brands and talent in the world.

The world needs play more than ever. Are you a Playmaker?

  • Professionals who thrive in fast-paced, high-energy environments
  • Team-oriented problem solvers with strong communication skills
