The NIL Store powered by Campus Ink is seeking an energetic student with a passion for sports to serve as a social media & creative ambassador for your school's NIL Store.

The motivated individual will join a network of like-minded students across the country who possess strong social media skills, creative intuition and a pulse for the athletics environment on their schools’ campus.

The NIL Store creates custom and co-licensed merchandise for athletes all across the country. Your school's NIL Store social accounts will serve as a platform for new merchandise drops and content for athletes and should be modeled after accounts like Purdue, Florida and Indiana.

The student is expected to have a strong grasp on Instagram and X in order to maximize their ability to create engaging content which includes photographs, graphics and reels. There is also an expectation of having a strong knowledge of the past & present sports landscape.

As ambassador on campus, the student will serve as the NIL Store’s eyes and ears on campus. The role is critical in making the NIL Store team aware of potential merchandise opportunities, upcoming events and other things occurring on campus.

We firmly believe our social accounts should serve as a positive community for fans first, and a store second.

Responsibilities to be successfully fulfilled include:

• Maintain school store social accounts, utilizing Instagram and X to impact sports on campus, drive fan engagement, and achieve organizational goals
• Deeply passionate about school sports with an understanding of current events and past history
• Celebrate specific athletes who are signed with the school’s NIL Store
