Community & Events Manager

Collective•San Francisco, CA

About The Position

Collective is on a mission to redefine the way businesses-of-one work. Our technology and team of trusted advisors help members achieve financial independence by taking care of everything from business incorporation to accounting, bookkeeping, tax services, and access to a thriving community, all in one integrated platform. We believe in empowering self-employed people to enjoy the same tax savings that big companies get, so they can focus on their passion, not paperwork. Featured in Forbes, Business Insider, Yahoo, Bloomberg, Financial Times, TechCrunch, and more. We are backed by General Catalyst, Sound Ventures (Ashton Kutcher and Guy Oseary), QED Investors, Google’s Gradient Ventures, Expa, and other investors who have financed iconic companies like YouTube, Substack, Twitch, Box, Hims, Instacart, and Lyft. About the role: We’re looking for someone who’s ready to hustle, travel, and make our members feel like the VIPs they are. This isn’t a “manage the Slack and send newsletters” community job. You’ll be in rooms with our members — at dinners, conferences, and events across the country — and then turn those moments into content, feedback, and community energy that fuels everything we do. If you have a bias for action, and want a job where no two weeks look the same, keep reading.

Requirements

You’re hungry and want ownership — you want to earn your stripes and you’re not waiting for someone to hand you a playbook.
You can coordinate an event in your sleep and get energy from it - you figure things out, ask questions, and you get it done.
You’re a natural connector who lights up in social settings and makes people feel welcome.
You love AI applications to make your life easier: Think tracking the results and incremental lift from your efforts (content, tracking who attended events etc.)
You’re highly organized and can juggle 10 things at once without dropping the ball.
You don’t mind (actually, you kind of love) being on a plane or in a new city every few weeks.
You’re a strong communicator in person and in writing.
You have a good eye for content and general aesthetics, you instinctively know when something is worth capturing.
You care about the details that make an experience feel special vs. just fine.

Nice To Haves

You’ve planned or coordinated events before both online and in-person.
You have experience proving the return on investment of community and IRL events.
You’ve run a community (Discord, Slack, subreddit, IRL group — anything.)
You’ve worked with or for self-employed people and understand the hustle.

Responsibilities

Own end-to-end execution of our member dinner series — sourcing venues, managing and maximizing RSVPs, coordinating logistics, and showing up ready to host.
Travel regularly to cities across the U.S. to bring our community together IRL.
Staff and support Collective’s presence at conferences, trade shows, and live events partnering with our partnership, marketing, and sales teams.
Be the face of Collective in the room — warm, energetic, and a champion for our members.
Keep our online community active and engaged through programming, conversations, and events that members actually look forward to: Pitch competitions, expert series, etc.
Run and facilitate our Member Innovation Council — structured sessions where members share feedback that directly shapes our product and services.
Work with our Product team to facilitate feedback sessions for PMs and PMMs.
Identify and elevate member voices, stories, and wins.
Be a content machine on the road — capturing photos, short videos, quotes, and stories from every event and dinner. You’re excited about creating content and contributing to our social footprint.
Partner with our marketing team to turn community moments into social content, case studies, and member spotlights.
Help document and share feedback and insights from events back to the broader team.
