MasterClass is looking for a Community Manager to own the community experience for our cohort-based programs, with an initial focus on MasterClass Executive, our 12-week business education program for accomplished professionals. You’ll create an engaging, high-touch experience that helps each cohort build meaningful connections—from the moment learners join through alumni life.

As cohort-based programming expands across MasterClass Executive, Certificates, and other products, you’ll help build the strategy and operational foundation for a centralized Community function. This is a hands-on role where you’ll both shape the strategy and serve as the daily voice of the community.

• Own the community experience for MasterClass Executive and Certificates cohorts end to end, from onboarding and daily engagement through alumni programming.

• Set the community strategy and create the rituals, programming, and connections that turn each cohort into an engaged network.

• Serve as the daily voice of the community, facilitating conversations, answering questions, connecting learners, and creating a welcoming environment.

• Manage multiple cohorts simultaneously while monitoring engagement, sentiment, and retention and proactively re-engaging learners who may be falling off.

• Build and manage community platforms, channels, playbooks, templates, automations, and AI-enabled workflows that allow the program to scale.

• Identify and support learner leaders, mentors, and alumni advocates who can help strengthen and grow the community.

• Partner closely with Events on weekly live sessions and in-person experiences, driving attendance and keeping engagement going after each event.

• Partner with Product, Marketing, Program, and Support to turn learner feedback and community insights into improvements across the experience.

• 6+ years of experience in community management, learner or member experience, customer engagement, or a related field, including direct ownership of a community program.

• Proven experience building and growing an engaged online community, ideally from an early or ambiguous starting point.

• Exceptional written communication and facilitation skills, with the ability to engage a sophisticated professional or executive audience.

• Hands-on experience with community platforms such as Circle, Slack,
