About Colonist
We're building the biggest digital board game platform on the internet. Last year, our players spent 3,037 years playing 60 million games on our Settlers of Catan alternative. We're a fully remote, asynchronous team spread across multiple continents, focused on crafting extremely polished digital board games that people truly love.
About The Role
As Community Manager at Colonist, you are the voice, pulse, and connector of a fast-growing global gaming community. Your mission is to build lasting relationships, keep the community thriving across Discord and beyond, run live tournaments, and turn passionate players into lifelong advocates. You won't just manage a community, you'll shape the culture of one of the most active board game platforms on the internet.
You Will
Own Discord: moderate channels daily, enforce community rules, manage bots and roles
Write and publish all community content (patch notes, newsletters, announcements) on-brand and on time
Run weekly tournaments and competitive seasons: scheduling, brackets, real-time moderation, results
Build direct relationships with top players, streamers, and creators
Report weekly on community sentiment: what players love, hate, and want, pulled from Discord, Reddit, and social
Create onboarding content for new players: welcome flows, beginner guides, FAQs
Manage the referral program: track metrics, improve mechanics, coordinate with marketing
Produce posts, graphics (Canva), and short-form videos (CapCut)
You Are
Experienced in building and managing communities
A gamer who plays board games and understands online communities first-hand
AI-first. We see AI fluency as a real multiplier
A Discord expert: bots, permissions, server structure, moderation
A strong English writer: clear, warm, consistent across every channel
Organised: you manage competing priorities without missing deadlines
Empathetic: you understand players deeply and resolve conflicts calmly
Data-literate: you track metrics and turn community signals into actionable reports
Self-directed: you work async and deliver without hand-holding
Available on weekends for tournaments and live events
Bonus Points
You know Catan or have played on Colonist
You speak Spanish, Portuguese, or German
You have video editing skills (CapCut or similar)
You've grown or managed a gaming community before
Our Values at Colonist
We strongly adhere to these values in our team - if these resonate, then you’ll love working here!
Dependability
We're self-driven players who deliver without needing supervision. When we commit to something, we make it happen.
Ownership
We take full responsibility and go beyond our roles to improve Colonist.
Clear Communication
In our remote environment, written communication is key. We're direct, structured, and always keep our team in the loop.
Efficient Execution
We move fast and focus on impact. Instead of getting stuck on perfect solutions, we find practical ways forward and get things done.
Continuous Learning
We're curious problem solvers who love a challenge. We constantly seek new ideas, embrace feedback, and aren't afraid to change our minds when we're wrong.
Why Colonist
Your work ships to 3,6M+ yearly active players
Async culture; deep work, no performative meetings
Unlimited vacation, yearly team offsite, full work equipment
Budget to experiment with any AI tool you want
Access to all company metrics and internal discussions
