Community & Partnerships Manager

What we're looking for:

We need someone with 5+ years of experience growing a consumer, membership, or lifestyle brand through community, partnerships, and word of mouth who has built referral, ambassador, or scouting programs from scratch. You should be comfortable hitting the pavement and doing grassroots, door-knocking work while also setting creative direction and strategy independently. Bonus points if you're known among your friends as a natural connector or matchmaker.

What you'll do:

- Design and run a scouting program — recruiting and managing a small team of scouts across different NYC communities to identify and bring in sought-after singles for Overtone's founding community. - Build relationships with communities, clubs, hosts, and venues that connect the people we're looking for, and develop partnerships and shared events to drive early growth. - Set the bar for the intentional daters we want to bring in, doing personal, direct outreach to build a diverse pool of exceptional people. - Own the community acquisition playbook for New York City, with the goal of building a repeatable model we can scale city-by-city as we grow. - Partner with the Membership Manager to ensure all new members have a seamless, premium onboarding experience. - Identify and activate micro-influencers, hosts, and connectors across NYC's social scenes — from founders and operators to arts, food, music, and members' clubs.
