Digital marketing, social media, newsletters, SEO/SEA and AI-powered campaigns for more than 500 endurance sports events and over one million athletes a year.
Workload: 60–100%, permanent position
Start: immediately or by arrangement
Location: Gerlafingen (SO) & remote
Triathlon, not a single discipline
We’re not looking for a specialist in one discipline. Nor for someone who coordinates what others do.
We’re looking for you: you’re as much at home in concept as in execution, and you switch between strategy and day-to-day work without losing time.
Datasport is the leading IT and service provider for endurance sports events in the Alpine region and the publisher of FIT for LIFE. We’re bringing our marketing into the AI era. You’ll help build it – not in five years, but from your first month.
Your disciplines
Swim – content & channels.
A weekly newsletter, from concept to send-out. Social media for Datasport,
FIT for LIFE and event organisers. Blog. You create text and visuals
yourself, with AI tools as a tailwind.
Bike – data & performance.
SEO, SEA, analytics, reporting. After every campaign you know what worked and
what didn’t – and what you’ll take away for the next race.
Run – growth.
More registrations, more subscriptions, more impact for partner offers.
Data-driven and personalised instead of a scattergun approach. You also
advise sports event organisers on designing and implementing their digital
marketing.
Transition – AI first.
This is where you gain the seconds. You challenge existing marketing
processes and automate them with AI tools instead of just working through
them. What you build is then used by the whole team.
Your start list
- Degree from a university or university of applied sciences in marketing, digital marketing, communications or sports management – or equivalent practical experience
- 1–3 years of experience in digital marketing; you’ve already owned your own campaigns, newsletters or social media channels
- Hands-on experience with AI tools (e.g. Claude, ChatGPT, Canva AI) and the drive to get more out of them
- Excellent written German with very good spelling; good English, French and Italian an advantage
- Familiar with WordPress, Canva and analytics tools; Adobe skills (Photoshop, Lightroom, Premiere) an advantage
- You’re into endurance sports – ideally you’ve worn a race bib yourself
What we offer
- A role with direct influence on reach, revenue and marketing culture – short decision paths, flat hierarchies
- You help build our AI setup in marketing instead of operating a ready-made one
- Huge reach and lots of positive emotions: 500+ events, 1M+ athletes, a community that’s with you
- 60–100%, flexible working hours, remote work options
- A hands-on team: Swissness, innovation, team spirit, passion
How to apply
Send us your application (CV, short cover letter) to [email protected].
In your cover letter, we’re most interested in: which AI tools do you use and for what, what have you concretely automated or improved with them – and where do you see the greatest potential in marketing? And: what’s your personal connection to endurance sports?
