Growth & Social Media Manager – Trading Cards

We’re building a new consumer startup in the trading-card space, and we’re looking for an unusually driven person to help build it from the ground up.

This is not a traditional social media manager position.

We’re looking for someone who understands how internet communities actually grow — someone who can create content, build relationships, find collaborators, work with creators and influencers, execute paid and organic campaigns, and constantly look for creative ways to turn attention into customers.

You should be comfortable being hands-on. One day you might be developing a content idea, the next reaching out to creators, launching an ad campaign, finding a community partnership, analyzing what converted, or jumping on an opportunity nobody else noticed.

Deep familiarity with trading cards — particularly the Pokémon TCG and its online collector community — is a major advantage.

What You’ll Own

Social media strategy and day-to-day execution

Content creation, concepts and distribution

Organic customer acquisition and community growth

Creator, influencer and community collaborations

Paid social advertising and campaign implementation

Identifying emerging trends and opportunities

Helping develop the company’s overall marketing voice

Testing ideas quickly, measuring results and doubling down on what works

Working directly with the founding team on launch and growth

Who We’re Looking For

We care much more about what you can do than where you went to school or what titles you’ve held.

You may already work in social media or growth marketing. You may be a creator yourself. You may have built an audience, Discord community, small business, TCG account or side project from scratch.

What matters is that you’re resourceful, creative, highly social, relentless and comfortable figuring things out without waiting for someone to tell you what to do.

We especially want to meet people who already understand the personalities, creators, communities and culture surrounding Pokémon and trading cards.

This Could Be Something Special

For the right person, this can become much more than a job.

We’re early. That means the person who joins us now has an opportunity to help shape the brand, marketing strategy and community from the beginning — and become an important part of what we’re building.

We’re open to meaningful equity for an exceptional candidate, in addition to compensation. We want the right person to have the opportunity to feel and operate like a founder, with real ownership, influence and upside if we build something great.

If you’re looking for a comfortable corporate marketing position, this probably isn’t it.

If the idea of getting in early, moving incredibly fast, building something from zero and being able to say “I helped build that” sounds exciting, we want to hear from you.

To apply: Tell us what you’ve built, what you’ve grown, or what you’ve done that shows us you’re the kind of person who makes things happen. Traditional resumes are welcome, but initiative and real-world results will get our attention.

Pay: $50,000.00 - $120,000.00 per year

Flexible schedule

Relocation assistance
