Job Description
Role: Community Manager
Location: Bengaluru (On-Ground Role, involves travel across city)
Commitment: Full-Time
About Age Stronger
Age Stronger is a fitness community for seniors in Bangalore. We conduct group fitness sessions and Pickleball coaching. We're not in the business of the stereotype: seniors sitting around, wheelchairs, low-energy "activities." Our members show up to move, compete, and get stronger. We exist to help seniors thrive, not just stay occupied.
The Role
We're hiring a Community Manager to own the job of engaging and growing our community, full stop. This isn't a support role. You will run at least one event a week, on a tight budget, and you'll be the one deciding what that event should be, not waiting for us to tell you.
What You'll Do
- Design and run one community event every week , on a shoestring budget. We'll give you direction on the first few, after that, it's on you.
- Come up with your own ideas for growing engagement, attendance, and paid conversions. If you're waiting for a brief, this role will frustrate you.
- Own your processes end to end : planning, vendor/venue coordination, on-ground execution, and follow-up.
- Travel across Bangalore for events, and check the venue/setup before each one happens. This is not a desk job .
- Be a primary point of contact and warmth for our members — most of whom are senior citizens who deserve patience, not politeness-as-performance.
What We're Looking For
- A genuine self-starter. If you need instructions to move, this isn't the role for you.
- 10/10 written and verbal communication . You'll represent us to members, vendors, and partners.
- Real empathy for seniors. Non-negotiable. Zero tolerance for cockiness or impatience.
- Comfort with ambiguity and a tight budget.
- Willingness to be on the ground and traveling, not behind a laptop.
Compensation : The Honest Version
Before the numbers, one clarification: this is not a "hire cheap, use, and discard" role. We are nothing without our community, which means this is meant to become one of the most important, long-term positions in our company. The ramp-up structure below exists because we've been burned before hiring for this kind of role, not because we see it as disposable.
We've hired before, paid a full month's salary, and then discovered the person needed heavy hand-holding or wasn't the right fit. We can't afford to keep doing that. So the first three months work like this:
Month 1 : ₹5,000
Month 2 : ₹10,000
Month 3 : ₹15,000
From Month 4 onward, pay is renegotiated based on the impact you've actually created. There's no cap on that conversation. It's on you to make the case.
Think of the first three months as a mutual trial: you're finding out if you want to build something from scratch with us, and we're finding out if you can. We'd rather say this upfront than have you discover it later.
Note: For the right candidate who adds value, there will be an opportunity to expedite this climb.
What you'll Actually Learn
Most people confuse a "group" with a "community" and build the former while calling it the latter. You'll get first-hand, first-principles grounding in what actually makes a community — what makes people show up, pay, stay, and bring others — by building one, in the real world, at our expense. Consider it a masters-level education you're getting paid (a little) to take, instead of paying for.
This Role is NOT For You If :
- You want a clear playbook to execute against.
- You need regular check-ins to know what to do next.
- You're not okay being on your feet, on the road, and out of your comfort zone.
- You see seniors as an inconvenience rather than people who deserve your full patience.
HOW TO APPLY
Skip the resume-and-cover-letter routine. Send a voice note to telling me about one event you've conducted, start to finish. Walk us through how you got people to show up, how you hosted them, and what you did after it was over.
A few things before you record it:
- Skip college fest experience. It doesn't translate here.
- An intimate event where you personally hosted 15 people tells us more than one where you managed 500. We're hiring a Community Manager, not an Event Manager.
- We care about the human parts — getting people there, making them feel hosted, following up afterward — not just logistics on the day.
