Who We Are

Arizona is the culmination of new people, cultures, businesses, and sports. For people and businesses, settling into a new environment takes time and effort, let alone sports teams. It can take years, sometimes decades, for fans to get behind a new sports franchise. The Diamondbacks took on this task when we were born into the National League in 1998. However, we were quick to captivate the love and attention of Arizonan’s everywhere. As the quickest expansion team in MLB history to capture the sports highest honor, the World Series, we also captured the memories and love of many fans in an incredibly emotional 2001 championship. These types of memories are what we strive to reproduce each season on the field, and in any other association of our brand. Being a part of our fan’s lives is something we cherish and place an enormous value on.

 

Our Mission

The mission of the Arizona Diamondbacks is to provide industry-leading entertainment in a clean, safe and family friendly environment and to make a positive impact on its fans and civic partners by focusing on team performance, fan experience, financial efficiency, workplace culture, and community contribution.

 In doing so, the organization will consistently compete for championships, treat its customers to quality service and entertainment, invest in its product, employees and fans, and establish and maintain a position of leadership in the community.

 

Our Culture

Our unique and versatile mindset allows us to be at the forefront and serve as pioneers and leaders in the industry.  We empower each other to be the best. Our potential is endless, and we will continually strive to be innovative in every facet. Our passion is shown in our commitment to help everyone including our partners, neighbors, fans, and community. We are more than just employees: we are family.
