We’re a new type of business hotel offering a relaxed place to live, co-work and socialize while wiring residents into the local scene. Join an international team of driven, proactive and fun-loving Zokus who all have one thing in common: a passion for connecting people across the globe. We’re also proudly B Corp certified at all four of our locations (Amsterdam, Copenhagen, Paris and Vienna), which means we hold ourselves to high standards when it comes to social and environmental impact, transparency and accountability.

TELL ME MORE

As our Community Events & Partnerships Manager, you are responsible for the community at Zoku Copenhagen. You are collaborating closely with the other community managers in Amsterdam, Vienna and Paris and will be reporting directly to the General Manager. This role is perfect for a community-driven hospitality professional who’s both strategic and hands-on: someone who can shake hands with a partner at noon, host a community dinner in the evening, and still remember it’s a resident’s birthday the next day.

WHAT WILL YOU DO?

No two days look the same as a Community Events & Partnerships Manager: one moment you’re welcoming long-stay residents or connecting co-workers over coffee, the next you’re shaping a major event with a local brand partner. From managing our Co-Working community to curating strategic partnerships, you’ll create the right mix of events and experiences that make Zoku Copenhagen feel like home, and put it firmly on the local map.

Brand Partnerships and Event Programming: Build and manage strategic partnerships while curating events with both local and global communities. You’ll coordinate with partners and our marketing team to drive awareness and help sell out our event calendar.

Copenhagen Scene Connector: You’re ahead of the curve on what’s happening in Copenhagen: spotting trends, events, and communities that matter to our audience. You turn online communities into offline connections, curating gatherings across topics from tech and design to AI (and everything in between).

Co-Working Memberships: Take care of our Co-Working community (25-30 fixed members + day passes) by managing memberships, onboarding new members, and organizing regular engagement rituals that keep the community thriving.

Long Stay Residents: Welcome and onboard residents staying 2+ weeks, making sure they feel supported, connected, and at home throughout their stay.

Meaningful Connections: Foster an inclusive, informal, and welcoming atmosphere within the Zoku Copenhagen community, ensuring everyone experiences a true sense of belonging.

• A market conform salary package including pension and health insurance.
• Coolbenefitslike an after-work drink, access to all community events, various discounts like 40% discount on F&B for you and 4 friends, plus Employee and Friends & Family rates in all Zoku Locations.
• A free night stay for you and your +1 in your first 3 months at your Zoku (dinner & breakfast) and a free night at any Zoku location for your birthday, including welcome drink & breakfast to experience Zoku as a true guest.
• No boring canteen!! Staff meals enjoyed from our Living Kitchen.
• A personal budget unlocked after 1 year at Zoku to spend on extra days off, learning & development, extra cash or discounted vouchers.
• A fun, young, and international team to grow with. Plus, exciting training and events to celebrate every step of the journey!
• A job at one of the 25 coolest hotels in the world, that feels like a second home and is purpose-driven.

We Love People Who...

• Have a connector mindset, are natural networkers and enjoy bringing people together, spotting opportunities to like residents, members and partners.
• Bring good vibes, are friendly and approachable, making people feel at home instantly.
• Know all the ins and outs Copenhagen, the cool partners we could work with and love going to local events, using this as your inspiration for developing new events.
