Sr. Community Manager

Responsibilities

• Build and run the ambassador and affiliate program.
• Structure partnerships that create value for both the creator and Taekus.
• Create programming and experiences.
• From dinners and meetups to AMAs, member spotlights, and Taekus-branded events, online and offline.
• Stay close to the ecosystem.

The Role

We're looking for a Sr. Community Manager to build and lead an engaged community of creators, influencers, and brand ambassadors around Taekus.

This isn't a content-calendar or social-scheduling role. It's about people. You'll recruit the right voices, cultivate real relationships, and turn an audience into a community that shows up, participates, and advocates. You know how modern communities actually grow, and you understand how creators and affiliate partnerships create value on both sides.

What You'll Own

• Recruit and grow the community.
• Bring in creators, influencers, and brand ambassadors across travel, premium lifestyle, and rewards.
• Cultivate and manage relationships over time.
• Keep members engaged, valued, and active.
• Track trends, creators, and conversations across travel and rewards, and bring insights back to Marketing, Product, and Leadership.
• Help shape our voice in the community.
• Keep it authentic, credible, and true to an understated, access-first brand.

Required

• 3 to 5 years building and managing engaged online communities.
• A social and digital background, with real instinct for how communities grow and stay active. This is cultivation, not content calendars.
• Understanding of social affiliate and creator marketing: how partnerships get structured, tracked, and turned into growth.
• Fluent in all things social and travel with deep understanding of points bookings.
• Entrepreneurial, and comfortable building something from the ground up.

Valuable

• An existing network of creators, influencers, or community leaders across travel, lifestyle, finance, or rewards.
• Experience creating content for social media, podcasts, newsletters, YouTube, or other community-driven channels.
• Experience organizing meetups, dinners, events, or conferences.
• A personal following or reputation in the travel, points, or creator space.
• Experience with financial services, fintech, travel, loyalty, or hospitality brands.

Why Taekus

• Real ownership over community building, not just execution.
• Profitable and growing with no runway anxiety.
• Remote-first; hubs in Chicago and the Bay Area.
• A team of travelers who actually use the product.
• Company offsites twice a year.
• Competitive compensation + benefits.
