WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR
In 1981, Nike created the EKIN team (EKIN is “Nike” spelled backwards) to be Nike’s Athlete Missionaries and serve as a reminder to go back to the days when athletes represented Nike, converted other athletes to our shoes and built personal and meaningful relationships in the community.
The EKIN team are our heartbeat in the streets, building relationships and evangelizing the Nike brand and our product innovations. Nike’s product authority, EKINs use their voice both internally, and at times, externally to empower all athletes to make-sport a daily habit.
Today, EKINs continue that mission and bring Nike's inspiration and innovation to athletes in the markets they serve and beyond. This role will lead our EKIN team in North America and champion sport and innovation in the marketplace across Nike Retail stores and our Partners.
The ideal candidate brings a dedicated approach and passion for Nike and sport, some background in retail, and excellent relationship building and influencing skills. It’s how we started over 50 years ago and the combination of these qualities will power Nike in compelling ways to better serve athletes for the next 50 years.
