We’re looking for a highly organized, proactive, and people-loving Administrative Intern to join our Fan Experience team. If you thrive in a fast-paced, team-centered environment, love supporting others, and don’t mind rolling up your sleeves for game day, this could be the perfect role for you.
This position plays a vital part in ensuring our staff feel supported, organized, and appreciated, especially on match days. The ideal candidate is someone who can toggle between behind-the-scenes admin work and on-the-ground game day operations with equal enthusiasm.
Compensation: $20 per hour
Schedule: Variable Part-Time hours (25–30 hours/week on average) | Must be available for most home games including weekends, some evenings/holidays.
Duration: Internships are based on business need. Typical duration is 3-6 months with reduced hours during the MLS offseason.
What You’ll Be Doing:
Game Day Operations (Weekends & Evenings):
- Prep and organize uniform check-out/check-in stations
- Set up and distribute radios, pins, snacks, and staff supplies
- Track attendance, punctuality, and uniform returns
- Be a friendly and reliable presence for new and returning staff
- Support real-time needs during matches and help ensure everything runs smoothly
- Assist with post-match wrap-ups (tracking inventory, returning equipment, logging data)
Weekly Office/Admin Tasks:
- Process supervisor reports, point tracking, and recognition programs (like Employee of the Match)
- Maintain accurate uniform, attendance, and staff records
- Coordinate stadium tours, special events, and recruitment outreach
- Prep materials for weekly team meetings and managing office supply inventories
- Send out timely communications, reminders, and follow-ups to staff
Monthly & Seasonal Tasks:
- Help run hiring fairs & coordinate new hire onboarding
- Organize and place snack and uniform cleaning orders
- Assist with Employee of the Month and Perfect Attendance programs
- Support staff with system tools like ABI and assist during open help sessions
- Take on light design or flyer-making (no design skills needed, just an eye for detail)
What We’re Looking For:
- Excellent communication and organizational skills
- Friendly, proactive, and resourceful personality
- Comfort with Microsoft Office (especially Excel) and willingness to learn staff software systems (training provided)
- Strong attention to detail and time management
- Able to lift and move supplies and work both indoors and outdoors
- Prior admin, hospitality, or event experience a plus—but not required if you're quick to learn and eager to contribute
Why You’ll Love It Here:
You’ll work in the heart of Portland’s soccer culture, gain hands-on experience in sports and event operations, and be part of a tight-knit team that cares deeply about its people. This role is fast-paced, hands-on, and rewarding, you’ll see the impact of your work every day.
