Meetup - Community Specialists Meetup

We're starting a local community revolution Our goal is a "Meetup Everywhere about Most Everything", and we're on our way. We help people "use the internet to get off the internet" because Meetups change lives and can change the world.

We are profitable, growing, and committed to building an all-star, all-NYC company. We are a company that values doers over talkers and mentors over managers. We are a company where people who take risks and win are rewarded and grow.

Our team is ambitious and passionate; the environment is relaxed and fun. We get shit done that makes a difference.

Meetup changes lives everyday. Our Community Team serves over 6 million Members and Organizers from around the world. We're in search of Community Superstars to join our team and further our mission: to spark a successful Meetup Everywhere about Most Everything.

The Community Team is here to support Organizers and Members in changing the world. We are active on Meetup's message boards, respond to emails and phone calls from our Members, write articles for our blog, and greet new Organizers. We're passionate about what we do because we know we are making a real impact on the communities we support.

Are you often considered:
A Jack/Jill of all Trades. You can moderate a message board, identify a bug on the site and laugh at bad jokes with sincerity.
Self-driven. You have excellent organizational skills, integrity and great follow through on tasks. You don't get overwhelmed easily - thousands of Member and Organizer emails each month No biggie
Naturally curious. You're a natural innovator, and always looking for ways to make things better.
Graceful. You're self aware, well-spoken on the phone and eloquent in emails. You could navigate a scooter through a Meetup HQ minefield. Or not yet, but you'll figure it out.
Fun. You're a people person who can talk to anyone; you're both flexible and fearless.
Motivated. You're going to own this place in five years or less. Or rather, you're going to take ownership of the time you spend with us and truly make a difference.

The work week is any five days of the week. You can opt for a traditional M - F schedule or create something non-traditional. Desire to work the weekend (or one weekend day) is a big plus. Saturdays and Sundays can be worked either from home or from the office. This position does not allow for full-time telecommuting - it's based here in our New York City headquarters. Initial training will occur during "regular" working hours. Please specify your ideal work week in your cover letter.
