Organizational Manager for Expansion Organization

As announced here, we are now announcing the opening of at least two (2) and at most four (4) Expansion Manager positions.

If you are interested in applying for an Organizational Manager (OM) position for one of the new organizations, please read this post in its entirety. Make sure that you have talked to your current Organizational Manager of your interest at applying for this role and received approval before sending in your application.

If you want to apply for an expansion organization together with an Assistant Manager, you may do so ONLY if you follow these steps:

1. Talk to your own Organizational Manager that you intend to apply for an expansion organization.
2. Approach the Organizational Manager where your desired co-applicant is under contract and get permission to talk to the user. If you do not get permission, you may not apply together.
3. Send in an application together with the co-applicant.

If the desired co-applicant is an Academy player, you do not need permission from anyone to talk to them.

Effects on the Draft(s)
If the co-applicant is a non-Academy player, they must be drafted in the second round of the Expansion Draft.

If the co-applicant is an Academy player (with no retiring player in the SSL), they must be drafted with a specified pick in the S22 Prospect Draft.

What is an organizational manager?
An OM is responsible for leading an organization consisting of two affiliates, a Major and Minor League roster of between 11 to 14 players. An OM may hire up to two (2) Assistant Managers (AM) that together will create the organization’s manager group to divide the responsibilities and workload among them. An OM may also hire one (1) Tactician whose sole responsibility is submitting tactics for at least one of the teams and may help with tactical discussions for the organization. The OM is the main point of contact for the organization.

The responsibilities include:

• submit tactics for games
  
• maintain an active locker room
  
• keep up to date with league rules
  
• keep track of organizational players and draft assets
  

What is the pay?
The job pay for an Organizational Manager is a weekly PT pass + $3.5 million seasonal pay.
The job pay for an Assistant Manager is a weekly PT pass + $2.5 million seasonal pay.

Application Procedure
As part of this application procedure you will be asked where you would like to locate the Major (and/or Minor) team. As the SSL is a world-wide league and football is a world-wide sport we have continuously worked on spreading out the organizations to different areas of the world. The image below shows the current placement of the Major and Minor teams and areas with large population centers or a known football culture that currently is lacking representation will be favored by the BoD.



Please include the following points in your application:

Other things you would like to add:

Send in your application to me (Canadice) on the forum or Discord, or any other BoD member. Make sure that you have talked to your current Organizational Manager of your interest at applying for this role and received approval before sending in your application.

The expansion process starts with the BoD assessing the submitted applications after the deadline. After appointing the applicants, the OM and BoD will discuss the placement of the teams based on the initial application. The detailed branding (full name and logo) will be worked on together with the BoD and graphics people, so it is not necessary to have completed brandings as part of the application.

The deadline for applications is Friday July 18th at midnight Pacific (Forum Clock).
