## Content & Community ManagerApply StickersPosted about 13 hours agoSave this Listing---Full TimeNew York CityDumbo, Brooklyn$80,000-$100,000 baseOpportunity Overview:You'll work directly alongside our Creative Director in our Dumbo Studio, building our direct-to-consumer channel from a strong foundation: a magnetic physical space, deep wholesale relationships with cultural institutions, and a brand that's already earned its place in the world. The Content & Community Manager will be tasked with growing our social following & engagement; building our owned email list; and creating a program of community events & activations — all in service of scaling DTC revenue as a meaningful part of our business.This isn't a "manage the content calendar" role. We're looking for someone who is native to the world Apply lives in — who understands visual culture from the inside and knows how to bring together a creative community IRL & online.If you're a creator who's also a builder — someone who makes content naturally; thinks in community; and wants to do it for a brand you're genuinely excited about — this is the role!Specific Responsibilities:- Grow the Apply community across owned digital channels (social, email, and whatever's next!) — with attention to the metrics that matter (list / follower growth, repeat engagement, and DTC revenue).

- Partner with our creative team to produce engaging social content (posts, reels, stories, memes, etc.), with a a focus on developing repeatable franchises.

- Write copy for captions, email newsletters, and community updates that feel authentic and human. Act as the "voice" of the brand in DMs, comments, and forums — approachable, playful, informed, and on-brand.

- Understand brand guidelines of licensors & draft campaigns for their/Creative Director approvals.

- Develop campaigns that encourage UGC (user-generated content), referrals, and repeat engagement.

- Track & report on engagement metrics, identifying insights to grow community reach.

- Establish gravitational pull of the Apply Studio as a creative space & brand asset.

- Support planning & execution of pop-ups, in-store activations, or collabs that bring community together.

- Leverage our credibility with artists, studios, museums, and independent retailers to build audience through cross-promotions & activations.Qualifications:- 2–4 years of experience in community, brand, or content — but we'll take a shorter runway for the right person with the right instincts.

- A genuine obsession with visual culture, stickers, and self-expression.

- Comfortable in front of the camera. You make content naturally: you've got a point of view & you know how to share it.

- A creator in some sense of the word: you post, you make things, you have a corner of the internet (or IRL) that's yours.

- Track record of building or growing an audience (Digital + IRL) on any platform, in any format; we care more about the instincts & methods used than the channel or the ultimate audience/growth metrics.

- Strong copywriting instincts — you can shift between caption, email, e-comm copy with a strong sense of brand voice.

- Comfortable operating as both strategist & executor; this is a hands-on role at a small, fast-moving team.

- IRL-oriented — excited by studio events, pop-ups, and activations as community-building tools, not just content opportunities.

- Organized enough to manage licensor relationships & campaign approvals without things falling through the cracks.

- Based in or willing to relocate to Brooklyn; this role is in-studio in Dumbo alongside the Creative Director and design team

- Scrappy & commercial — you know how to spend money to make money, but do it as if it were your own

- Low ego, high taste — you take the work seriously without taking yourself too seriouslyCompensation & Benefits Overview:The target salary for this role is $80,000-100,000 base (commensurate with experience) + performance bonus, along with a competitive equity package.
