We've seen the community management discipline mature over the past year - both in terms of how well it's understood and in the recognition by companies that their social initiatives are more successful if they have a dedicated community manager. Demand for community management skills has also steadily increased to the point where we are getting contacted regularly by both community managers and hiring companies and recruiters.
While CR members are happily employed, we do reach a lot of community managers through our larger social network that could use some matchmaking. We've seen a wide range of positions and backgrounds and feel like we have the experience to help connect people and companies that are likely to be a good fit for each other.
With that in mind, if you're looking for a community management role and would like to be in our queue of individuals that we recommend to recruiters, please tell us a bit about your experience and what you're looking for. We will share your contact information with recruiters and/or hiring companies as appropriate (let us know if if you're ok with that below), but your answers to these questions will be kept private and will only be used to assess fit and/or shared in aggregate. We will not share your name for any other purpose.
