SaaS Community Manager - Part Time/Freelance

About StartupSauce SaaS Community:

StartupSauce  is an exclusive, private community of successful SaaS founders based outside Silicon Valley. 

Most of the discussion revolves around the day-to-day operation aspects of running a SaaS business like sales, marketing, hiring, systems & processes, recommending service providers to work with etc.

Our members join because they want to network with other successful founders, share advice, make intros, and learn from each other. Our community is small, but very engaged and once members join they typically remain a member for a long time.

Ultimately, if you’re a SaaS founder outside Silicon Valley, we want StartupSauce to be the best damn place on earth to go to accelerate your business.

We are currently looking for an experienced freelance or part time Community Manager to join our team and make our community even more awesome.

About You

You’re a “people person” - fun, friendly, extraverted. You’re able to keep SaaS founders engaged, facilitate connections between members, organize events and guest speakers and moderate weekly mastermind calls.

Naturally, you’ll have impeccable English, exceptional oral and written communication skills, and love talking to people and finding ways to help them.

You’ll also be interested in the world of SaaS specifically and online business in general - maybe you want to start your own business one day (or you already have).

Finally, you’ll also have some experience working in a scrappy startup environment and be a self-starter who gets shit done without needing someone to hold your hand.

Responsibilities

• Stay up-to-date with the world of startups and SaaS, in order to share valuable content for founders to engage with

• Stay up-to-date with the members of the community, by getting to know each founder’s business, as well as their current strengths and pain points

• Create and share content in the form of articles, videos, news, polls, etc. within our private StartupSauce Slack community

• Respond to comments by facilitating connections between founders (i.e. tagging relevant founders to help each other out)

• Organize and participate in events to build community and boost brand awareness (i.e. find and line up guest speakers, organize events)

• Generate a weekly newsletter that showcases new StartupSauce initiatives such as events, guest speakers, etc.

• Stay in touch one-on-one with founders and offer your personal expertise or get them connected with the proper founder to help them out

Requirements

• Excellent writing and speaking skills (in English)

• Minimum of 3 years of experience in any of the following marketing fields: SEO, PPC, CRO, Content Marketing, Email marketing, P.R.

• Experience working for/in a startup environment

• BSc degree in Marketing, Business or relevant field

• People-oriented: ability to engage with people one-on-one and in groups.

• Experience launching community initiatives (e.g. finding guest speakers, managing an online community or forum, launching an ambassador program, organizing an event, and writing an email newsletter.)

Note: This position is fully remote, and does not involve a fixed schedule. It will be part-time initially, with the possibility of going full-time as the community grows.
