Yelp is looking for a Community Manager in the North Shore!
Do you love the North Shore? Are you the go-to person when it comes to planning a night out, always ready with a recommendation for the area's most seasoned finds and hidden hotspots? As the North Shore Community Manager, you'll be a full-time Yelp employee (working out of your home or anywhere with WiFi) at the helm of a vibrant, buzzing community of locals who drink, shop and play their way through the burbs via peer recommendations on Yelp. Community Managers are driven, self-motivated, charismatic, and organized as they're tasked with wrangling a slew of to-dos both on and offline, from writing and moderating to party planning and ringleading!
About you
Has a fire in the belly. Walks through walls. Takes no prisoners. In a word: driven. Even when no one is watching. Especially then.
Social connector. You are the hub of your social world. You know everyone. Everyone knows you. The fun one. Diplomatic, too.
You reside in the North Shore and consider yourself a local expert (see below).
Have more than a few years of post-graduate professional experience (existing Yelp community managers have 5 to 15 years).
Lives to write; writes to live. You know who you are... pencils down!
About the job
Event planning. Conceptualize, negotiate, plan and execute cool, fun and buzz-worthy (big wow factor!) events/parties.
Marketing outreach. Connect with the right local organizations, barter weekly newsletter sponsorships for promotion of Yelp.
Socializing and adventuring. Meet up with yelpers. Attend civic events. See and be seen. In the scene. Be the Mayor. Always on.
Writing. Write locally compelling newsletters weekly and inspiring reviews daily, as well as persuasive pitches to venue owners and marketing partners.
Communication. Be accountable with stellar communication to your peers and those who support you at Yelp HQ.
