About Ground Zero
Ground Zero is a next-generation talent and advisory firm dedicated to powering the social impact ecosystem. Since 2023, we've grown from a pilot into a movement- supporting 100,000+ active job seekers and helping 1,000+ nonprofits find talent across all thematic areas.
We're not a typical recruitment firm. We're a living community on WhatsApp, LinkedIn, Instagram, and Facebook. Through weekly AMAs, webinars, and bi-monthly podcasts, we intend to create spaces where job seekers find opportunities, guidance, and connections.
We're a remote-first team of 10 entering our third year. Now we need someone special to join us to drive community engagement.
What Are We Looking For?
A Community & Experience Associate who's equal parts connector, host, problem-solver, and storyteller.
You light up managing multiple groups/spaces simultaneously. You thrive in conversations. You can host a webinar, edit a podcast, and still engage with community members- all in one day.
You understand the social sector- not just professionally, but as a calling.
What Will You Be Doing Day-to-Day?
Community Management (50%)
- Own community spaces across WhatsApp, LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook
- Engage with job seekers daily- answering questions, sharing opportunities, creating connections
- Guide candidates through the ecosystem via one-on-one conversations
- Build relationships with nonprofits and facilitate introductions
- Curate learning resources and job postings
Events & Content (15%)
- Host 1-AMA per week with GZ team for job-seekers
- Facilitate 1-webinar per week with social sector leaders
- host 1 podcast every 15 days for #KnowTheSocialSector (guest coordination to editing)
- Edit video/audio content for distribution
Social Media (20%)
- Manage WhatsApp, LinkedIn, Instagram, and Facebook presence
- Design graphics using Canva and other softwares
- Share success stories and community highlights
- Drive engagement with creative campaigns
- Track metrics and optimize content
The Rest (15%)
- Whatever needs doing! Use Monday.com to stay organized
- Collaborate on new initiatives
- Respond to emerging community needs
Challenges or Exciting Things You'll Encounter
The Juggling Act: Hosting an AMA while managing WhatsApp groups, editing podcasts, and preparing social content- all at once.
Emotional Labor: Supporting frustrated, anxious job seekers while maintaining your own energy requires deep empathy and boundaries.
Always Visible: You'll be on camera regularly. If that's uncomfortable, this will be a struggle.
The Volume: 100,000 job seekers. 1,000+ nonprofits. Multiple platforms. Dozens of daily interactions.
Ambiguity: We're growing and trying to have processes but Processes aren't perfect, priorities shift, and you'll figure things out as you go.
If you need crystal-transparent structure or struggle with multitasking, this isn't the role.
Skills, Knowledge & Attitude That Help
Must-Haves
- 1-2 years experience in communications, community management, HR, or nonprofit work
- Nonprofit sector knowledge- you understand the language, culture, and challenges
- Communication superpowers- written and verbal excellence
- Camera comfort- you're not shy on video
- People person- you love talking to people over calls, video, messages
- Multitasking mastery- managing multiple groups doesn't overwhelm you, it excites you
- Tech comfort- Canva, basic video/audio editing, Monday.com
- Self-starter- you see what needs doing and do it
- Empathy- you genuinely care about helping people
Great-to-Haves
- Experience hosting events, webinars, or podcasts
- HR, talent acquisition, or career counseling background
- Network in the nonprofit sector
- Social media marketing skills
What Won't Work
- Struggling with multitasking or feeling overwhelmed by multiple groups
- Being camera-shy or uncomfortable on video calls
- Needing hand-holding for every task
- Viewing this as ‘just a job’
- Lack of empathy or impatience with struggling people
What Success Looks Like
First Month:
- Launch your first AMA, webinar, and podcast
- Actively engage across all platforms
First 3 Months:
- Manage all communities independently
- Drive 30% increase in community engagement
- Build relationships with nonprofit partners
- Bring fresh ideas to life
First Big Win:
- A job seeker messages you: they found their dream job through Ground Zero, and your guidance made the difference
A Final Note:
This role is intense, rewarding, messy, and meaningful. You'll connect deeply with strangers, celebrate their wins, and hold space for their struggles.
If you need predictable 9-to-5 tasks and rigid boundaries, this isn't it.
But if you want work that matters- where every conversation could change someone's career trajectory- we'd love to meet you.
Let's build a community where no job seeker feels alone.
