About Major League Cricket
Major League Cricket (MLC) is the premier professional T20 cricket league in the United States, bringing the world’s most exciting and dynamic sport to America. Established to elevate cricket's presence in the U.S., MLC showcases top-tier competition featuring international stars, emerging domestic talent, and franchise teams representing iconic cities across the nation.
Through its interconnected commercial rights and responsibilities including Minor League Cricket, as well as the USA men’s and women’s national teams, MLC is not just a league; it’s a movement to bring one of the world’s most popular sports to a new frontier. With global partnerships, investments from leading cricket organizations, and a commitment to excellence, we are redefining the future of cricket in America.
The Opportunity
MLC is seeking a Graphic Designer to support execution of key functional areas in the lead-up and during the 2026 Cognizant Major League Cricket season. This cross-functional role will operate in a highly collaborative environment, partnering closely with Marketing, Commercial Partnerships, Ticketing, and Tournament Operations to deliver compelling, on-brand creative across digital, print, and live-event platforms.
The ideal candidate is a detail-oriented visual storyteller with a strong design sensibility, a passion for branding, and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced sports environment. This is a hands-on role for a designer who enjoys seeing their work come to life across stadiums, digital platforms, broadcast moments and national campaigns.
Why Join MLC?
We are at a defining moment for cricket in the United States. Season 3 of Major League Cricket has expanded coast to coast, including staging matches at the iconic Oakland Coliseum.
The U.S. Men’s National Team is preparing to compete in the 2026 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup to be staged in India, and most significantly, cricket will return to the Olympic stage at the 2028 Los Angeles Summer Games, catapulting the sport into a new era of global visibility and commercial opportunity.
You’ll help bring this moment to life by shaping how Major League Cricket looks, feels, and connects with fans across the United States and beyond, using design to tell the story of an emerging sport in the world’s largest sports media market.
