Community Manager - Remote Gaming Platform

About the Role

We are looking for a Community Manager remote to join our dynamic team at Colonist. As a Community Manager, you will be the voice and pulse of our fast-growing global gaming community. Your mission is to build lasting relationships and keep the community thriving across Discord and beyond.

What You'll Do

• Own Discord: moderate channels daily, enforce community rules, manage bots and roles.
• Write and publish all community content (patch notes, newsletters, announcements) on-brand and on time.
• Run weekly tournaments and competitive seasons: scheduling, brackets, real-time moderation, results.
• Build direct relationships with top players, streamers, and creators.
• Report weekly on community sentiment: what players love, hate, and want — pulled from Discord, Reddit, and social.
• Create onboarding content for new players: welcome flows, beginner guides, FAQs.
• Manage the referral program: track metrics, improve mechanics, coordinate with marketing.
• Produce posts, graphics (Canva), and short-form videos (CapCut).

Requirements

• A gamer who plays board games and understands online communities first-hand.
• A Discord expert: bots, permissions, server structure, moderation.
• A strong English writer: clear, warm, consistent across every channel.
• Organised: you manage competing priorities without missing deadlines.
• Empathetic: you resolve conflict calmly and fairly.
• Data-literate: you track metrics and turn community signals into actionable reports.
• Self-directed: you work async and deliver without hand-holding.
• Available on weekends for tournaments and live events.

Nice to Have

• You know Catan or have played on Colonist.
• You speak Spanish, Portuguese, or German.
• You have video editing skills (CapCut or similar).
• You’ve grown or managed a gaming community before.

What We Offer

• Your work ships to 3.6M+ yearly active players.
• Async culture; deep work, no performative meetings.
• Unlimited vacation, yearly team offsite, full work equipment.
• Budget to experiment with any AI tool you want.
• Stock options: you’ll own a piece of what you’re building.
• Access to all company metrics and internal discussions.
