THE CHALLENGE

Help us grow and celebrate the Adventure Spec community.
Help us define how the relationship between Adventure Spec and our community evolves.
Help us understand how socials can play a more strategic part in shaping the Adventure Spec story. 
Help us identify and improve areas in our comms and marketing that could be working more effectively. 

Adventure Spec makes lightweight outdoors gear for adventure motorcyclists. 

We have invested energy in creating and understanding this statement, what it means for us as a business and what it means for our community. 
Our small marketing team have worked hard to establish our brand story with humanity and authenticity. 
We are now looking for a marketing and community manager to join us and help grow our capacity to create impact in the adventure motorcycling sector.

You will assist with all aspects of our current marketing, and take ownership of our community and social media spaces. 
You will bring your expertise in the adventure motorcycle / outdoors sectors and help us understand how the relationship between Adventure Spec and our community should evolve. 
You will then take a lead on this evolution. 
You will use your expertise and skills to apply social media as a tool to help define the relationship between Adventure Spec and our community. 
You will seek out opportunities for us to refine and improve the way that we connect with and celebrate our community. 
You will help us define our relationship between organic and paid for social content. 


This is a high impact role in a small and passionate team of adventure motorcyclists. 
We will work closely together to shape the Adventure Spec story and you will be encouraged to be curious. Sometimes we will follow the pack, often we will forge our own path. 
We are looking to bring a team member on board who has a deep understanding our adventure motorcycling community, and is looking to be part of a company that strives to better serve that community through the gear we make. 
This is not a role for an influencer - if and how we work with influencers is a question you will help us answer. 
This is a role for a marketing professional who has an understanding of how to work with communities. 


QUALITIES THAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

Curiosity. Is there another way? 
Communication. Ability to analyse written messaging and translate core essence into different formats. 
Versatility. Most of our team specialise in one area, and lend their hands in others when necessary. 
Accountability. We care about the tasks we are given. 
Understanding of the evolving social landscape and tools. What input do they need to be successful? Should we use them? How do we use them?
Leave it better than you found it. If something needs done, get it done. Take pride in improving the areas you are responsible for.
