In his new role, he will also manage the company’s regional operations, purchasing and new business development teams.

“Jeremy has driven exceptional results for KemperSports and our clients since his arrival,” Steve Skinner, CEO of KemperSports, said. “Jeremy not only brings a unique background of proven success and a strong commitment to client service but also has a passion for investing in people — something we place a high value on at KemperSports.”

Goldblatt was previously COO of Professional Sports Catering at Levy — a hospitality company providing food and beverage to major sports and entertainment venues. In that role, Goldblatt led the team in managing the outsourced food and beverage service at 32 spring training and minor league baseball stadiums around the country, which included oversight of more than 4,000 staffers.

Over the past 18 months, KemperSports has signed 20 new contracts, and its portfolio has expanded to include five new states.
