We know starting a community is hard yards — but it's where momentum starts. You'll work closely with our Head of Product and CEO to develop the brand voice within the community. We're committed to supporting real innovation and building an engaging, authentic tone that actually resonates. On any given day, you might be configuring a content scraper to pull HR tech insights, encouraging a team member to share their latest case study, moderating peer-to-peer discussions, or experimenting with new ways to surface opportunities to the right people. Who you are:
Strong instincts about what makes community work in 2025 — you know what keeps people coming back
Self-starter who can shape strategy with minimal hand-holding
Comfortable setting up automations
Proven community builder with a track record of sustained engagement
Genuine curator — you understand what your audience cares about
Low friction with internal teams — you can get people excited about contributing

Build workflows that keep 3,000-10,000 people engaged
Facilitate peer-to-peer learning and real conversations

You own the entire community function at an early stage — real autonomy
Direct reporting to Head of Product, with CEO input -- means you can move fast and make calls
4-month initial project -- means you can actually ship something and see the impact
You'll be building something from scratch where your judgment matters more than a playbook
