About the Role:

Community Manager

This role is perfect for someone who lives online, enjoys creating buzz, and knows how to turn passive followers into an active, loyal, and inspired community.

Key Responsibilities:

• Build, grow, and manage our online communities (Discord, LinkedIn, Instagram, etc.) with a student-first approach.
• Create and manage content calendars, including AMAs, spotlight stories, challenges, and student polls.
• Initiate and moderate conversations among students, mentors, and alumni — keeping engagement high and the tone friendly, inclusive, and brand-aligned.
• Organize virtual events, town halls, and community activations in collaboration with the marketing and student experience teams.
• Monitor community sentiment, flag concerns, and recommend improvements to the broader team.
• Track engagement metrics and prepare monthly reports on community growth and activity.
• Develop onboarding flows and resources to help new members feel welcome and informed.

Qualifications:

• Strong written and interpersonal communication skills.
• Familiarity with Discord, LinkedIn groups, Telegram, and other online community platforms.
• Passionate about education, mentorship, and youth-driven spaces.
• A natural community-builder — you're approachable, responsive, and know how to make people feel heard.
• Able to work independently and juggle multiple conversations/events at once.

Bonus:

• Experience managing student communities or EdTech audiences.
• Ability to create simple visuals (Canva) or edit short video clips.
• Experience with automation tools like Zapier or community CRMs.

What You’ll Gain:

• A high-impact role shaping how thousands of students and mentors interact.
• Direct access to an international network of motivated young people and top university mentors.
• Room to experiment, create, and grow a community from the ground up.
• Support from a passionate, collaborative, and fast-moving team.
• Opportunity to transition into a leadership role as the community scales.
