Joe Carney

Senior Vice President of Sales & Brand Partnerships, Minute Media

Joe Carney is the Senior Vice President of Sales & Brand Partnerships at The Players’ Tribune, now part of Minute Media. Founded in 2015, The Players’ Tribune was co-founded by future Hall of Famer, Derek Jeter who wanted to provide athletes a platform to share their stories in their own words.

Prior to joining The Players’ Tribune almost 3 years ago, Joe spent a combined 15 years working for Major League Baseball, the National Football League, Viacom and ESPN in various sales management and marketing roles, with a focus on digital media and sports sponsorships. Despite working for such large and established sports and entertainment properties, Joe’s passion lies in working with partners/athletes who want to push the envelope and think beyond logos and banners.

Joe graduated from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst with a B.A. in Marketing. During his free time, he enjoys playing dad/coach to his 9 year old daughter Paige and 6 year old son JoJo.
