About Jacob Newton

I am currently a Manager of Digital Insights for FOX Sports. I specialize in streaming, social and web/app analytics. At FOX Sports I provide streaming and social media strategy and insights across all of FOX Sports and its properties. I work across multiple teams to report and provide analysis of FOX Sports Properties. I work with key stakeholders on strategy for social media and streaming properties. My previous role was as a Digital Analyst for the Pittsburgh Steelers, specializing in data analysis and insights for web, app and social media. I help provide insights and content analytics for a variety of departments, while helping develop the Steelers brand across all digital channels. I previously worked as an Analyst with Turner Sports Insights and Marketing. During my time I provided sports property analysis across multiple platforms (digital, linear, TVE) and for multiple departments (Marketing, PR, Ad Sales). Prior to working at Turner, I attended the University of Massachusetts Amherst and received my Masters of Science in Sports Management. For my undergraduate degree I attended Iowa State University and received a Bachelor of Science in Finance. I have previous experience working at the Iowa Sports Foundation, a non-profit who organizes and runs Olympic style sporting events for all ages. Through this I was exposed to a variety of experiences such as: event management, marketing, sponsorship, and customer service. I’m an effective communicator who possesses a strong work ethic and the ability to go above and beyond what is required to get the job done.
