Global Operations Specialist Para Sports (m/f/d)

HYROX is a global sports event series that combines running and functional fitness training in a unique race format. Founded in Germany in 2017, HYROX has evolved into a worldwide fitness movement with events across five continents, attracting tens of thousands of athletes every season.

This is a highly operational, hands-on role dedicated to execution excellence. While leadership establishes the high-level strategy, governance, and frameworks for new formats of the adaptive divisions, you will be directly responsible for the operational implementation, delivering educational programmes to regional teams, and conducting on-site audits. This is a ground-floor opportunity for an operationally strong professional to drive delivery excellence and shape the on-site reality for adaptive athletes globally.

YOUR KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• On-Site Integration & Delivery: Travel to key international events to oversee the seamless integration of adaptive considerations across all race-day touchpoints, including Sports, Operations, Timing, Registration, and Race Direction.

• Compliance & Audits: Conduct comprehensive on-site audits to verify that venues, course setups, and transitions strictly adhere to global adaptive accessibility, safety, and safeguarding standards.

• Feedback Loop: Identify operational barriers on-site and provide data-driven, experiential feedback to leadership to support the continuous refinement of global adaptive racing formats and processes.

• Classification Framework Rollout: Support the operational rollout of the global classification frameworks designed by leadership.

• Regional Enablement: Act as the primary technical training resource for Regional Hub Liaisons (Americas, EMEA, APAC/ANZ) to build a unified operational standard.

• Workshops & Training: Deliver training and operational workshops for local Race Directors, volunteers, and timing crews.

• Community Education: Assist in educating the broader HYROX community on adaptive Sport language, rules, and our inclusion ethos.

YOUR PROFILE

• Experience: Hands-on event operations experience or involvement with inclusive mass-participation events. Practical experience implementing sports classification systems or working alongside classification panels is highly valued.

• Para Sports Domain Knowledge: Experience working with adaptive athletes and familiarity with medical frameworks, allied health, sports science, or medical language. An athlete perspective or lived experience within the adaptive sports ecosystem is a strong plus.

• Auditing & Systems: Practical experience conducting venue, safety, or regulatory audits within a sporting or event context.

• Communication Skills: Confident communicator capable of training diverse teams, from corporate regional managers to race-day volunteers.

• Flexibility: High flexibility and readiness for extensive international weekend travel across the Americas, EMEA, and APAC regions.
