Role Description

We’re looking for an experienced Community Manager to build, launch, and grow a Slack-based alumni community at Productside. This role is focused on standing up the community from the ground up—seeding it from our existing alumni and client base, driving it to 500+ members, and sustaining genuine, ongoing engagement.

You’ll own the community end to end: part architect, part host. You’ll design the channel structure and onboarding experience, then bring the space to life as its day-to-day voice and energizer. This is an ownership role measured on whether the community actually thrives—reinforcing the value our learners get long after a course ends and re-engaging them as repeat buyers and referral sources.

What You’ll Do

• Design and configure the workspace. This includes: channel architecture, onboarding flow, guidelines, and moderation norms built for retention and content sharing.
• Develop and run a seeding and recruitment plan using existing alumni/client lists and the Productside Ambassador Program as early evangelist.
• Drive membership growth toward 500+ members in the first quarter after launch.
• Spark and sustain conversation through prompts, discussion threads, AMAs, and recurring programming.

• At least one piece of member generated content or discussion per week.
