The Audience & Community Support Specialist is the warm, welcoming voice behind JHS Pedals' social channels, community spaces, and artist relationships. You're the person our audience talks to - engaging across comments and DMs, moderating conversations, and supporting our artists with genuine care and a consistent JHS voice. The heart of the role is building trust. You'll make everyone who reaches out, from new customers to touring artists, feel genuinely heard and seen, while getting them fast, accurate answers. You'll also help shape what our Audience and Community experience becomes next.
Show up where our audience does - YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, X, and beyond. Monitor and actively engage with comments, DMs, replies, and mentions, representing the JHS voice authentically across every platform.
Keep our spaces safe and on-brand. Moderate community spaces and social channels for spam, trolling, and harmful content, removing, hiding, or escalating as needed, while recognizing and escalating potential brand-risk situations to leadership.
You will often be the first to hear what's working and what's not. Flag important feedback, common questions, and pain points to leadership to help inform product development and customer experience improvements.
Use and continually update a shared bank of common questions and answers, so responses stay accurate and consistent across high-volume periods and every platform.
Be the day-to-day point of contact for JHS Pedals artists on operational needs. Assist with gear questions, order placement, discount applications, replacements or repairs, and hosting with timely follow-up and real care.
Support product launches and major announcements by preparing for anticipated spikes in community and social activity, coordinating with leadership on messaging and response plans in advance. Coordinate demo units and product reviews as part of that process - getting gear into the right hands and tracking it through to publication.
Continuously look for creative, strategic ways to engage our audience. Bring original ideas to the team for audience and community growth and customer experience improvements.
You have 2+ years of experience in social media management, community management, or a customer-facing support role.
You actively play guitar and use effects pedals, and you can talk knowledgeably and specifically about tone, gear, and playing experience - in real time, in writing and out loud. This is a core requirement for the role.
You're a skilled relationship-builder who makes people feel valued and excited to engage with the brand, balancing detail-oriented follow-through with quick sound judgment.
You're a self-starter with excellent written and verbal communication skills, able to adapt tone across platforms and audiences while managing multiple conversations, platforms, and relationships at once.
You understand platforms and community dynamics well enough to respond quickly and thoughtfully without losing authenticity or brand voice.
You're self-motivated to generate new concepts and are genuinely energized by improving the customer and community experience for JHS Pedals users.
New platform, new app, AI tool - you're comfortable enough with technology in general that picking up whatever comes next isn't a big lift. You dig in, figure it out, and put it to work.
