Good Party is looking for a full-time, remote Community Manager. The Community Manager will launch and steward our online Discord space plus lead programs to turn interested individuals into engaged community members and active volunteers who collectively unlock our mission.
What you’ll do:
- Launch, scale, oversee and head up moderation for Good Party’s Discord server. Create a welcoming and engaging community for independent voters and candidates across diverse political perspectives.
- Build relationships with community members, supporting them to become strong Discord contributors and Good Party volunteers who collectively set a good cultural direction for our online space and movement
- Create and execute strategies for growing and scaling Good Party’s online community, utilizing best practices in community management and engagement
- Communicate with potential community members via social media (currently 75k+ TikTok followers, 1k+ Instagram followers), responding to direct messages and directing traffic to other team members as needed
- Recruit and retain volunteers for Good Party and supported candidates. Train volunteers’ capacities via Discord and our other online platforms.
- Develop and implement training, skill shares, and online activations for community members, coordinating their outputs to ensure high-quality delivery
- Measure and report on the success of these engagement channels from the viewpoint of both our users and the organization
- Work closely with Good Party’s team to identify areas for improvement and implement changes to enhance the community and volunteer experience. Leverage Discord bots and AI tools to make your job easier and the community stronger.
- Report to Head of Field & Mobilization as early team member
Who we’re looking for:
- You’re up for the audacious challenge of transforming our democracy for Good
- You love building relationships, chatting with people most of the day, and stimulating engaging discussions that keep people coming back for more
- You’re an active Discord user and/or server admin with scaling experience from when a server was new or in its early days
- You’re motivated to support Good candidates and build a diverse community (across political ideologies, identities, and locations), whether it’s due to your strong interest, past volunteer work, or previous experience in related fields
- You’ve got 2+ years of experience in online community management (paid or unpaid), with a proven track record of growing and scaling online and/or IRL communities
- You naturally notice opportunities to empower people. You enjoy figuring out the best way to effectively plug someone in and asking if they’ll participate or volunteer. You lean toward decentralization, with good judgment around what needs to be top-down and what doesn’t.
- You’re a memorable speaker, writer, and casual online chatter. You’re great at writing effective messages, emails, and texts to engage the community. You can plan, create materials for, and run fun trainings.
- You’re highly organized, able to manage multiple priorities, and respond to direct messages in a timely manner.
- You have a Bachelor’s degree in a relevant field, such as Communications, Marketing, or Political Science.
- You thrive working at startup speed. Our solution is desperately needed and the issues of our time are all bottlenecked by our corrupted democracy.
- You align with our team’s values: We Are – Honest, open, and mission-driven. We Believe – People are Good. We Create – Results that inspire and grow our movement. We Love – Freedom and owning responsibility for all that we do. We Party – Together with a purpose!
