About The Position

At Trove, we’re building the future of collectibles — where culture, community, creators, and commerce collide. We’re looking for our first in-house content creator and community manager to join us at the ground floor. This role isn’t about posting content. It’s about storytelling, shaping energy, and building real connection with the collector community. You don’t need experience in collectibles — but you do need to care about culture, internet communities, and what people are genuinely passionate about. The right person is creative, curious, adaptable, and able to execute with clarity and speed. You’ll work closely with the founding team to build our community and online presence from scratch. Your job: turn early signals into momentum and create the systems that help our content and community scale as Trove grows.

Requirements

Created content for social platforms or communities and learned by tracking, analyzing, and understanding what performed
Spent real time inside online communities (Discords, fandoms, niche Twitter, creator ecosystems) and understand tone, norms, and unwritten rules
Written in a clear, conversational, human voice aligned with brand and growth goals
Managed or moderated a community, account, or audience — even informally — and can speak to your learnings, mistakes, and wins
Worked on a small team where you figured things out without much process or direction
Understood engagement signals, not just vanity metrics
Followed creators, trends, and internet culture closely and can articulate why something takes off
Taken ownership of projects and seen them through even when the path wasn’t obvious

Responsibilities

Create and ship content across social and community channels, testing ideas and iterating based on data, trends, and engagement
Be on the front lines: start conversations, answer questions, and define how Trove interacts with users
Support launches, drops, and key moments across Instagram, TikTok, X, YouTube, and the platforms we choose to invest in
Listen closely to what the community is saying (or not saying) and translate that into clear, actionable insights
Explore new platforms, formats, and ways to engage — then double down on what works
Collaborate with creators, partners, and early advocates to amplify their content and reach
Build light, simple structure so content and community can scale without slowing us down
