We are looking for an experienced and passionate Community Manager to join our Merchant Experience (MX) team and support both MX and Product with deep-seated customer empathy and an emphatic community-first mindset. Just like how UX Designers advocate for the best user experience with a product, the Community Manager will be the advocate for – and driving force behind – creating a community of e-commerce enthusiasts, and/or Smile customers, from the ground up.
As the first Community Manager at Smile, you need to be passionate about e-commerce. You read articles and blogs about it, you listen to podcasts about it, and you may even run your own e-commerce business (full time, or on the side).

Creating – creating well-designed content and digital resources that are useful to the entire realm of ecommerce. That could mean Twitter threads, on-demand video, or a new podcast.
