Job Description

The University of Olivet was founded on the principle that the future of humanity rests in the hands, hearts and minds of those who will take responsibility for themselves and others in an increasingly diverse society. Open since its founding to all regardless of race, gender or ability to pay, The University of Olivet actively seeks diversity in its students and employees. 

 

The University of Olivet is located in south central Michigan in the town of Olivet, MI.   Olivet is a close knit, rural community offering quiet streets and natural surroundings, yet is not more than 30 minutes from the larger cities of Lansing and Battle Creek.  

 

The University of Olivet is looking for an individual who has a passion for Esports and an interest in being a part of the development and growth of a collegiate Esports team. The University of Olivet has partnered with the Block House, which is the home of The University of Olivet Esports team. The Block House offers a state-of-the-art competitive arena for the team to practice and compete in. This facility is adjacent to current athletics facilities and provides a high-quality training space for the Esports team. This position is responsible for promoting and establishing a good partnership with Block House and working in collaboration with the team at Block House to develop community relationships and help grow the sport in the south central Michigan area. 

 

UO’s professional Esports arena is not just another classroom converted into an Esports arena. Through the innovative partnership with Block House, UO’s Esports team will compete at a state-of-the-art location, front and center, where spectators can enjoy the competitive Esports environment with a front-row seat, putting them in the action while they cheer on their favorite gamers.

 

Coaching at The University of Olivet will provide an opportunity for the Esports coaching staff to work with Block House, promoting Esports in the community through middle and high school leagues, and community Esports education, allowing those new to the sport to see what it is all about. Esports is a way to bring the community together in a diverse environment allowing everyone to participate either competitively or socially.
