We're Hiring: Community and Social Media Managers

by Will Chen on 2 November 2010 9 comments

With our recent media exposure and the launch of our new Top 100 Chart, we're getting a ton of new readers and media attention.  We're looking to add several community and social media managers to help engage our growing community.

People who worked with us have received great opportunities like nationally syndicated columns, top ranked iTunes podcasts, book deals, consulting gigs for top brands, blogger conference speaker invitations, and interviews with magazines, newspapers, radio, and TV shows. 

You'll be working on a site that gets over a million pageviews a month and followed by over 15,000 Twitter fans.

This is a fantastic opportunity for an ambitious blogger or marketing associate to make connections, expand her personal brand, build an impressive writing portfolio, and learn the business of online publishing and marketing. 

This is a telecommute contract position. We're looking for 20-30 hrs/week, but we're open to more hours or full-time for the right candidate. Bloggers and WAHM/D welcome!

Main Requirements

  • Minimum 1 year experience working for any of the following: a marketing/ad agency, blog (your own blog counts if it is a good one), forum, or other online publication.
  • Excellent writing skills. Able to write compelling, ready-to-publish blog posts and press releases quickly. 
  • Loves chatting with people in forums or blog comment threads. A real people person. 
  • Strong personal interest in frugality or personal finance.

Thank you Zach! It certainly doesn't hurt that you're commenting on a thread about a job that requires a lot of commenting. =)

Sounds like a cool job, if only I had 48 hours in a day I'd apply :)

I wish I had started my blog sooner, so I could be included in the running.

What an amazing opportunity! You mentioned that you will be hiring several individuals in the near future. Are you looking to have individuals in different cities or regions to give Wise Bread a more "local" feel? If so, that's great! I'll have my application to you shortly, and I look forward to sharing some ideas.

Hi Andrew,

We're definitely open to hiring people from all over the country. It is a telecommute position so I think we'll get a good representative of various regions in the US. I look forward to reading your application!
