About GoalPaddy
Instead of simply helping people set goals, GoalPaddy helps them execute them through structured milestones, tasks, and social accountability.
Users can break meaningful goals into actionable steps, stay on track, create groups, invite others, and build accountability circles that make it easier to follow through.
As we approach launch, we're focused on building our initial user base, finding scalable growth channels, and creating a strong community around the product.
About the Role
We're looking for a Growth & Community Manager to help lead GoalPaddy's early go-to-market and community-led growth.
This is a hands-on role. You'll be responsible for finding the right early users, building relationships with communities and partners, running growth experiments, and figuring out what consistently brings people onto GoalPaddy and keeps them engaged.
You'll work closely with the founding team and have significant ownership over our early growth strategy.
What You'll Do
Help define and refine GoalPaddy's initial target user segments.- Develop and execute strategies to acquire our first 1,000–5,000 users.
- Identify high-leverage communities, channels, and partnership opportunities.
- Build relationships with professional, student, fitness, and other relevant communities.
- Coordinate user acquisition and outreach campaigns across relevant platforms.
- Develop and run rapid growth experiments.
- Test acquisition channels including LinkedIn, X/Twitter, community partnerships, influencer collaborations, and challenge-based campaigns.
- Analyse results from growth experiments and quickly iterate based on what works.
- Help develop strategies that encourage group creation, user invitations, accountability circles, and challenge-based engagement.
- Build a community around GoalPaddy and turn users into active advocates for the platform.
- Gather insights from users and communities to help improve our product positioning, messaging, and growth strategy.
What We're Looking For
- Experience in growth, community management, marketing, user acquisition, partnerships, or a similar role.
- Strong understanding of how online communities grow and engage users.
- Creative and resourceful approach to user acquisition.
- Strong communication and relationship-building skills.
- Ability to independently take an idea from strategy to execution.
- Comfortable running experiments, measuring results, and adapting quickly.
- Strong interest in startups, technology, productivity, personal development, or community building.
Most importantly, we want someone who can think beyond simply posting content. We want someone who can identify where GoalPaddy's potential users are, find ways to reach them, build relationships, create compelling campaigns, and turn those users into an active community.
What Success Looks Like
Your success will be measured by:
- Early user acquisition.
- The effectiveness of GoalPaddy's go-to-market strategy.
- Identification of scalable growth channels.
- Contribution to early traction and product adoption.

Why Join GoalPaddy?
You'll be joining at an exciting stage where you won't simply be managing an existing growth machine — you'll help build it.
You'll work directly with the founding team, have significant ownership over growth and community, experiment with different strategies, and see your ideas directly influence the growth of the product.
