The Sports Bubble has discussions with the talented people having fantastic experiences and doing amazing things in the sports industry. 

In this episode, we speak with Andrew Pirchan. Andrew is the commercial partnerships and sales manager at the newly established A-League club Western United. Andrew is arguably a commercial and sales guru with close to 20 years working in this environment, and was a mentor to one of our previous guests Naomi Maclean.

In our chat we learn how one of Andrew’s firsts roles in the industry at the Box Hill Hawks transformed his career for the better and why he is so thankful for this time. We hear about his thoughts on the future of sport sponsorships and how you can position yourself to succeed in the commercial landscape. We also touch on why he loves the commercial and sales environment, and how a new professional sporting club like Western United attracted sponsors without having any proven product.

If you are looking to work in commercial sport or enhance your job prospects in this environment, you don’t want to miss this.
