Job Summary

Own and scale the ambassador program from scratch, shaping onboarding, incentives, and community touchpoints while turning family connections into referrals and voicing the family experience to brand, product, and leadership.

  • Own the ambassador program from recruitment to recognition and ongoing engagement
  • Turn community insights into product and brand improvements while driving referrals

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Own the Herd
  • Build and run the ambassador program end to end: recruitment, onboarding, incentives, points, recognition, and swag families are proud to wear
  • Design the whole experience so it feels human and genuine, never transactional
  • Grow the Community
  • Create the online spaces, recurring touchpoints, and (with our events team) the gatherings that keep families connected
  • Give ambassadors what they need to host, share, and welcome new families, and make it easy and joyful
  • Turn Connection Into Referrals
  • Build the systems that make it natural and rewarding for happy families to bring in the next one
  • Track ambassador growth, engagement, and the referrals the community drives
  • Be the Voice of the Family

Requirements

  • You are a self-starter who builds from scratch. There is no playbook for this yet; you will write it.
  • You lead with empathy and people trust you quickly, families and teammates alike.
  • You have taste and creativity, and you sweat the details that make people feel cared for.
  • You are full of ideas for making belonging feel special, and pragmatic enough to turn them into a real program with real numbers, without killing the warmth.
  • You are equally strong on the human side and the systems side.
  • You move fast, own outcomes, and do not wait for permission.
  • You care deeply about families navigating autism care, and it shows in everything you make.

Preferred

  • You have built or grown a real community before (brand, patient, creator, membership, or otherwise)
  • Experience with ambassador, referral, or loyalty programs
  • Lived or close experience with the autism or special-needs community

Benefits

  • Health benefits
  • Flexible PTO
  • Dinner when working late
