Job summary

Static Media is seeking a freelance Reddit Community Manager to run the Reddit Pro accounts for multiple publications across tech, auto, entertainment, and food. You will engage readers in brand-aligned communities, answer questions, join conversations, and share our reporting where it fits to build trust with Redditors.

This hands-on role requires deep Reddit knowledge and the ability to adapt tone to various brands while following each community’s rules. Remote role, US/Canada preferred.

Qualifications

  • Deep, firsthand knowledge of Reddit: its culture, unwritten rules, self-promotion norms, and what gets a brand account downvoted or banned.
  • An active Reddit history (personal or managed professionally) that you’re comfortable sharing privately to evaluate tone and voice.
  • Strong writing skills and the ability to switch between distinct brand voices with confidence.
  • Sound judgment about when to post, when to comment, and when to stay out of a thread.
  • Self-directed and organized; able to manage several brands at once without close supervision.
  • Comfortable working with editors and following a brand’s guidelines.

Responsibilities

  • Manage verified Reddit Pro accounts for multiple Static Media brands.
  • Develop a Reddit strategy and distinct brand voice for each publication, identifying relevant communities and opportunities for meaningful participation.
  • Write helpful, on-voice comments and replies in relevant subreddits, using our coverage to answer real questions.
  • Share articles, scoops, and reviews with Reddit-friendly titles and context, following each community’s rules.
  • Use Reddit Pro tools (Links, keyword tracking, community insights) to find conversations and track how our content performs.
  • Build transparent relationships with subreddit moderators and coordinate approvals for AMAs and recurring threads.
  • Help plan and run AMAs with our writers and editors.
  • Flag sensitive threads, corrections, and community issues to the editorial team quickly.
  • Monitor Reddit conversations to identify emerging trends, audience interests, and potential story ideas, sharing actionable insights with our editorial teams.
  • Track engagement, community response, and referral traffic, using performance data to refine our approach and identify what’s working.
  • Keep a weekly activity log and send a short performance summary each week.
  • Test formats, topics and timing, and recommend what to do more or less of.

What We’re Looking For
  • Deep, firsthand knowledge of Reddit: its culture, unwritten rules, self-promotion norms, and what gets a brand account downvoted or banned

Details

  • Fully remote; candidates in the US or Canada preferred

Static Media is looking for a freelance Reddit Community Manager to run the Reddit Pro accounts for several of our publications across tech, auto, entertainment, and food. You’ll represent each brand in the communities where its readers already gather: answering questions, joining conversations, sharing our best reporting where it fits, and building a presence Redditors trust.

This is a hands‑on role for someone who knows Reddit from the inside. You understand that brands earn their place on Reddit by being useful first, and you know how to read a subreddit’s rules and culture before posting anything.
