The Professional Fighters League (PFL) is a privately held mixed martial arts sports organization founded in 2017 by venture capitalist Donn Davis, headquartered at 19 Union Square West, New York City, that operates a global MMA league using a sport-season format in which individual fighters compete across a regular season, playoffs, and championship -- a structure distinct from traditional MMA event promotion. PFL acquired Bellator MMA in November 2023, significantly expanding its fighter roster and international content library, and has since expanded its operations to include four regional leagues: PFL MENA (Middle East and North Africa, launched 2024), PFL Africa (launched 2025 with Francis Ngannou as chairman), PFL Pacific (covering Australia and New Zealand), and a planned European league. The organization distributes its events across more than 160 countries through partnerships including ESPN2, ESPN+, Max (for Bellator Champions Series), Warner Bros. Discovery, Stan Sport, U-NEXT in Japan, and SuperSport in sub-Saharan Africa, and in April 2025 appointed John Martin as its new Chief Executive Officer. The company has raised approximately $367 million in total funding from investors including Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund, Helios Investment Partners, SURJ Sports Investments, 885 Capital, Waverley Capital, Elysian Park Ventures, and Alex Rodriguez. According to PitchBook's 2026 company profile, PFL has approximately 150 total employees -- the most consistently sourced figure available, as Craft.co lists just 5 and other sources do not provide reliable independent verification, making PitchBook's figure the most credible estimate. Internal departments span Event Production and Operations, Broadcast and Media, Fighter Relations, Marketing and Digital, Partnerships and Sponsorship, Legal and Compliance, Finance, and People & HR. This page lists the latest job openings at PFL, offering professionals an opportunity to contribute to the growth of a globally expanding combat sports league at the intersection of live events, sports media, and international entertainment.
