Fanatics is building a next-generation TCG and collectibles business, and we're seeking a Senior Director of TCG Collectibility to own a major part of how it comes together. You’ll drive collectibles strategy and execution across product, player experience, and partnerships — helping build a TCG platform that's excellent both as a game and as a collectible, one players and collectors trust to grow and thrive for years to come.

This role owns how collectibility fits into our product portfolio while working with product and partner teams on how it is executed, and how we best grow the collectibility ecosystem in ways that benefit players, collectors, and the overall health of our games.

A builder's temperament, energized by ambiguity and getting things done in high-growth environments

Sharp commercial and analytical instincts, paired with genuine respect for community trust and product quality

A systems thinker who builds repeatable capability rather than running every launch personally

Exceptional communication and stakeholder management skills

Preferred Qualifications

Familiarity with licensing, IP partnerships, or entertainment ecosystems
