Community Manager (Full-Time)

Location: Remote
Type: Full-time (initial contract basis)

About OV

Overseas Vietnamese (OV) is the private network for Vietnamese professionals, entrepreneurs & leaders worldwide. We’re on a mission to build the #1 global community for our people.

You’ll be joining as one of our first full-time hires, working directly with the founder. This is a hands-on, high-frequency execution role—not a passive, behind-the-scenes job. You’ll be in the arena: hosting, engaging, building, creating, and executing. If that excites you (not scares you), we’d love to chat.

About the Role

This is a high-ownership, generalist role that sits at the intersection of community management, events, operations, content, and member success.

You’ll be the heartbeat of OV—the person members know and trust. Your goal: help members fall in love with OV & stay in love with OV.

What You’ll Do

1. Community Management:

  • Own the community programming & drive conversations on Slack

  • Onboard, support, and engage members to ensure they feel seen, supported, and successful

  • Design and test new engagement rituals and community experiences

  • Lead and run community programs like mentorship and masterminds

2. Events & Facilitation

  • Host and lead online events (and in-person if in a city with OV members)

  • Support and manage local city leads to organize in-person meetups

  • Source and manage speakers for workshops and guest sessions

3. Content Creation

  • Post content to grow OV’s brand across social platforms (LinkedIn, Instagram etc)

  • Capture member stories and turn them into content (written or video)

  • Build community resources (e.g. guides, directories etc)

  • Collaborate on content strategy to keep OV top-of-mind and high-quality

Who You Are

  • Highly extroverted, social, and warm—you genuinely love meeting & connecting people

  • A strong communicator: confident speaker + sharp writer

  • Fast—you reply quickly, move quickly, and get things done

  • A digital native—you live in DMs, group chats, async convos

  • Self-driven with high ownership, attention to detail, and strong execution

  • Comfortable communicating across all levels, from students to CEOs

  • Of Vietnamese descent (our community is for Vietnamese professionals)

  • Experienced and confident at facilitating both online and in-person events

  • Excellent English (spoken & written)

Bonus Points If You Have:

  • Strong personal presence on LinkedIn or Instagram

  • Sharp writing and content instincts—you know what doesn’t feel generic

  • Great taste and a strong sense of brand aesthetics

  • Experience with Slack, Airtable, CRMs, Google Workspace, and AI tools

Why Join OV?

  • Build your own network, reputation, and personal brand—you’ll connect with some of the most impressive Vietnamese professionals out there

  • Learn fast across high-value skills: community building, marketing, growth, communication, branding, and leadership

  • Work on something deeply meaningful and energizing—we promise it will never, ever be boring

  • Help build the #1 community for Vietnamese professionals—and maybe one of the best communities in the world

  • Be part of something big—we’re expanding into new verticals (recruiting, members club, investment, etc.), with community at the core

  • Join a bootstrapped, high-margin, truly global business—with plenty of room to grow alongside it
