Do you instinctively like to bring people together?

Impact Hub London is looking for a Community Manager who can make the 500+ members in each workspace feel like one big family. This is a great opportunity if you’re passionate about building communities and bringing about social and environmental change.

We have been operating in King’s Cross for 15 years, and early in 2024 will be opening a new space in the Euston area. We are therefore seeking a Community Manager for each space. You will be the face of the space – harnessing the skills and resources of not only your own team but the wider Impact Hub team, such as the Facilities Manager, Events Manager, Sales Manager and others to ensure that the members who work in your location experience seamless service and a sense of belonging from their first encounter with Impact Hub London.

You will manage a team of Community Coordinators, leading on connecting our members to one another; to the services and opportunities that Impact Hub London offers in one of our workspaces; and to our wider ecosystem of entrepreneurs, changemakers and partners locally and globally. From onboarding new joiners to running community and networking events to building relationships that help our members thrive, no two days will feel the same.

Key Responsibilities

The Community Manager will be responsible for providing a welcoming and inspiring membership experience. Specifically:

  • Welcome and retention: Create a seamless onboarding experience for new members including a handover from IHL’s Sales Executive, orientation sessions and personalised introductions to existing members. Maintain a ‘member wall’ for members to introduce themselves to one another. Ensure retention of members by identifying and responding to members’ needs.
  • Community building: Nurture and grow community cohesion to increase member satisfaction. Co-develop and implement creative methods of engaging and connecting Impact Hub members locally and globally, in person and through online networks, to enhance their ability to collaborate. Curate, manage and facilitate existing and new social events and workshops that inspire and connect members and support their work. Work with the Marketing team to provide inspiring and relevant content to members.
  • Member capacity building: Connect members to other networks and opportunities locally and globally. Manage our online global Community Platform. Work with the programmes team to provide business support opportunities for the community such as workshops and clinics with key partners, investors and pro bono providers. Work with the
    Events Manager to ensure community needs are reflected in the events run in the space.
  • Consultation and Data Gathering Undertake member town hall meetings, polls and check-ins with key customers to understand member satisfaction, collaborations, retention/churn and other engagement metrics. Lead on annual member survey dissemination and collection within your workspace. Use data to evaluate, service improvements and report to the Leadership Team and board.
  • Membership administration: Keep our membership platform, Nexudus, up to date and ensure sales and services are fully updated on the system. Work closely with the Finance Manager to respond quickly to membership requests and queries and to chase non-payment of invoices. Suggest ways to update our processes.
  • Service Quality and Improvement: Create, recommend and implement service improvements in your workspace. Identify workspace improvements and equipment faults to the Facilities Manager. Work with the Marketing Team to ensure prompt communication with members when issues arise.
  • Line Management: Recruit, induct and provide ongoing management and support to your team of Community Coordinators who staff the workspace, whose role is to provide a warm welcome, hospitality and services to members and support the Facilities
    Manager with regular health and safety and maintenance checks, flagging items that require fixing. Ensure the space is fully staffed by organising shift patterns and covering for leave, covering yourself if no other team members are available.
  • Licence Holder: Obtain or complete training to hold a personal alcohol licence and serve as the designated premises supervisor for their location, in addition to being trained in first aid, fire safety, and fulfilling the role of the anti-money laundering officer for their respective location.
