  • Summary

  • On "Make The Cut" our goal is to bring you the conversations that you need to hear to get hired in professional sports. We deconstruct the career paths, work lessons, and practical advice of the people who have built successful careers on the business side of pro sports teams. From the NHL to the NBA. From football to soccer. These are the stories of the people who make it happen off the field, off the ice and off the court. Our goal is for you to leave with a better knowledge of what it's like to work in the world of pro sports, different jobs that you didn't know existed and actionable steps on how to get your next job in sports. We want to be that edge that helps you make the cut and get hired in sports.

    14: Alexis Demmery - Partnerships at Vancouver Canucks
    Dec 23 2021

    Alexis Demmery is a former partnerships manager with the Vancouver Canucks. She worked her way up from a tour guide to lead partnership clients with the team. She hunted new partners, built partnership marketing programs and (more importantly) said no to the opportunities that wouldn't lead her down the path she wanted. 

    We talk about her strategies for landing an internship, the characteristics needed to be promoted from within,  her personal philosophy on experimentation and how she deals with the fear of failure.
