Lovingly known as “Mr. B” in Braves Country, William “Bill” Bartholomay is largely to thank for bringing the Braves to Atlanta in 1966. This move set the stage for decades of success and prosperity still felt today.
The William Bartholomay Fellowship is designed as a legacy platform to continue honoring the contributions of Mr. Bartholomay while learning the business of baseball.
The William Bartholomay Fellow will work closely with the Chief Executive Officer and Vice President of Talent Management as they rotate through several departments within the organization. In addition to hands-on departmental experience, the Fellow will also receive executive leadership to develop the tools necessary for leading and operating business within a major league sports franchise.
The rotational nature of this Fellowship allows Fellows to develop a thorough understanding of several areas of business and how each department supports one another. Rotational schedule varies each year depending on departmental needs and participant interest, but has previously included Retail, Ticket Operations, Corporate Partnerships, Marketing, and more.
The 2025 William Bartholomay program will run from January through December 2025. Applications will be available beginning in September 2024.
