The Opportunity
We’re looking for a Community Manager to join our Toronto team. You'll be the voice behind some exciting brands, helping build engaged online communities and creating meaningful conversations across social platforms.

This role is also a great opportunity for someone looking to grow their career in social strategy. Alongside community management, you'll have the chance to support our strategy team with social listening, audience insights, trend research, and campaign planning, with the opportunity to grow into a Social Strategist role over time.

• Identify emerging trends, memes, conversations, and cultural moments that could inspire content or engagement opportunities.
• Track community performance, audience sentiment, and engagement metrics, sharing insights and recommendations with internal teams.
• Help develop community management guidelines, response frameworks, FAQs, and best practices for clients.
• Stay up to date on platform changes, social behaviours, and evolving community management trends.
• Support the strategy team with social listening, audience research, competitive analysis, and identifying cultural trends and insights.
• Help translate community conversations, audience behaviours, and engagement data into actionable insights and strategic recommendations.
• Contribute to brainstorms and early-stage campaign planning, bringing forward ideas informed by community trends and audience interests.
• Assist with developing social strategy presentations, research decks, and reporting for internal teams and clients.
• Collaborate with strategists to better understand how community insights inform broader social and content strategies.

What You'll Bring

• 2+ years of experience in community management, social media, or a related digital marketing role, ideally within an agency environment.
• A strong understanding of social media platforms, online communities, and how audiences engage with brands.
• Excellent written communication skills, with the ability to write engaging, clever, and on-brand responses.
• A natural ability to adapt your tone of voice across different brands, audiences, and platforms.
• A genuine passion for internet culture, social media trends, entertainment, and what's happening online.
• Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple clients and communities at once.
• Experience using social media management and listening tools such as Sprout Social, Hootsuite, Brandwatch, or similar platforms.
• Good judgment when handling sensitive conversations, customer concerns, or potential brand issues.
• A proactive, collaborative mindset and the ability to spot opportunities without always being asked.
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, creative agency environment where priorities can shift quickly.
