Metalabel’s goal is to be the best place on the internet to release creative work. We help creators release work across mediums and formats, value their work in new ways, and support one another and be supported. Our purpose is to inspire a new creative era of mutual support.
We’re looking for a passionate Community Manager to join our team.
As Community Manager you will join our small Creative team. Together we recruit and support artists and groups to release work with us; help tell the stories of those works with those artists; and support the wider Metalabel ecosystem of creators and collectors.
The ideal candidate should have a deep passion for creative projects and the people behind them; experience working in web-based creative or professional communities; and thrive in a fast-paced environment.
You’ll be responsible for directly supporting and providing spaces for creators to learn how to use Metalabel, have success releasing work, and be supported by the Metalabel squad and the network of creators who drop here.
The role is full time. Candidates based in NYC preferred.
