How to Apply for Community Growth Builder

at Aeronord Media

🏢 About Aeronord Media

GeneralGiist is a global discussion forum and community focused on real conversations, shared interests, and authentic connection. Unlike typical social platforms, it prioritizes free speech, discovery, and fun, aiming to make every member feel heard. Working here means shaping a community from the ground up and having a direct impact on its growth and culture.

About This Role

As a Community Growth Builder, you will own the full member journey: acquisition, activation, engagement, and retention. You'll experiment with organic growth tactics, welcome and onboard new members, spark discussions, and analyze data to keep people coming back. This is a hands-on role where your creativity and analytical skills directly fuel the community's expansion.

💡 A Day in the Life

Your day might start by analyzing yesterday's acquisition metrics and engagement data, then brainstorming new outreach channels. You could spend time welcoming new members, sparking discussions in underactive threads, and testing a new referral campaign. Later, you'd connect with moderators or team members to align on retention strategies and report on growth progress.
