Caroline O’Connor’s career path has always been business-oriented. One of her passions, though, has always been sports.
“I was an avid baseball fan growing up,” O’Connor said. “When it was spring, it was time to go to baseball games. Definitely was always a fan.”
So when the opportunity came in 2017 to work for the Miami Marlins and mix business with passion, she didn’t pass it up.
Five years later, O’Connor has risen to the top position in her department. The Marlins on Monday promoted O’Connor to president of business operations. She had previously served as the team’s chief operating officer since 2019 after originally holding the title of senior vice president and chief of staff when she was hired in 2017.
