Community Manager (Part-Time Contractor)

Location

Remote / Los Angeles preferred

Commitment

~20 hours per week to start, with potential to grow into a full-time role as the company scales.

We’re looking for a part-time, contracted Community Manager who can take our existing library of newsletter content and repackage it into social-first, engaging, culturally fluent formats that grow awareness, increase social followership, and convert to newsletter signups. This role is equal parts strategist and doer: you’ll edit, adapt, and amplify what we already have, while spotting opportunities to experiment with new formats and surface Prism’s unique voice across platforms.

This role is perfect for someone who thrives in the overlap of culture and wellness, knows how to translate long-form content into scroll-stopping moments, and can grow a loyal online community by showing up with humor, empathy, and creativity.
- Content repackaging & amplification:
  Turn existing essays, interviews, and media assets into engaging posts, stories, and reels that feel native to each platform.
- Community engagement:
  Monitor, respond, and nurture dialogue with our target audience across our hero platforms: Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, LinkedIn, and Beehiiv.
- Publishing calendar:
  Develop and manage a consistent content cadence that amplifies Prism and Parallel projects.
- Analytics & insights:
  Track engagement and audience growth, sharing takeaways that inform future strategy.
- Trendspotting:
  Surface relevant cultural moments and wellness conversations, and connect them back to our brand POV.
- Experimentation:
  Test new formats (audio snippets, carousels, memes, polls, live chats, collabs) to boost reach and deepen connection.
- 2–4 years experience in social media, community management, or digital content (agency, publisher, or brand side).
- Proven ability to translate long-form or editorial content into social-native storytelling.
- Strong writing and editing skills with a sharp eye for tone and voice (funny, smart, warm — not cheugy).
- Digitally fluent and culturally savvy; you know when to lean into trends and when to zag.
- Experience with scheduling, analytics, and basic creative tools (Canva, Adobe Suite, CapCut, etc.).
- Passion for wellness, storytelling, and building online communities.
- $35-45/hr depending on experience (approx. 20 hrs/week).
- Flexible, remote-friendly schedule. Cute office space in Chinatown LA if you’re into face time.
- Report into VP of Content, experienced brand lead who will provide mentorship and guidance.
- Opportunity to shape the voice and growth of a cutting-edge media brand at the intersection of wellness and culture.
- Contract role with potential to transition into a full-time role as Parallel scales.
- Your resume or LinkedIn profile.
- A brief note about why Parallel is a good fit.
- 3-5 examples of social content you’ve created OR a short description of how you’d repackage one of Prism’s essays for Instagram.
- Send everything to info@parallel.la with the subject line: Community Manager — [Your Name].
