About The Team

The ALX Community Experience team is a high-performing, impact-driven team that thrives on collaboration and scale. We embrace innovation, test new ideas, and go the extra mile to deliver meaningful results and experiences for our Learners and Alumni. Grounded in data and fueled by solutions, we hold ourselves and each other accountable to exceptionally high standards, enabling us to consistently grow and strengthen the ALX Community across markets.

Do you excel in fast-paced environments where ambitious goals drive your work? Do you bring an analytical mindset that helps you identify trends, improve systems, and translate insights into action? Can you turn a newsletter or an eHub post into something members actually stop to read? Are you a natural relationship-builder who can foster trust and collaboration across regions and teams? Are you ready to roll up your sleeves, adapt quickly, and do whatever it takes to ensure the success of our Community?

If so, then this could be the role for you.

Role Summary

As the Community Program Specialist, you'll embed community across the ALX talent journey, from selection and recruitment through learning, transition, and alumni engagement. You'll own ALX's virtual community presence, including eHub, along with the community's newsletters and communications, working cross-functionally with Community Managers, Marketing, Learning, and other teams to deliver one consistent, member-driven experience, in person and online.

Specific Responsibilities

Program Management

Design and implement strategies to embed community at every stage of the ALX talent journey (selection, recruitment, learning, transition, alumni).

Collaborate with cross-functional teams (Marketing, Recruitment, Learning, Alumni) to ensure community-driven approaches are integrated into their workflows.

Develop frameworks and toolkits/playbooks to support Regions in driving community initiatives.

Community Integration

Ensure the community is member-led and city-driven, with central support for strategy, frameworks, and resource allocation.

Implement one ALX community: bring learners and alumni into a single, unified community rather than treating them as separate audiences, so the transition from learner to alumnus feels continuous, not like leaving one group to join another.

Online Community & Digital Engagement (eHub)

Own and manage eHub, the ALX virtual community platform, as the digital home for learners and alumni, keeping it active, well-moderated, and useful.

Set up and maintain the eHub structure (groups, channels, resources) so it matches the talent journey and supports member needs at every stage.

Drive day-to-day engagement on eHub: start discussions, welcome new members, surface relevant content, and moderate conversations in line with community guidelines.

Track and report on eHub engagement metrics (active users, posts, response times, sentiment) and use the data to improve the platform over time.

Work with stakeholders so that eHub complements other member touchpoints instead of duplicating them.

Manage eHub interest groups and support interest group leaders to manage the spaces as well as programming.

Newsletters & Communications

Plan, write, and send monthly community newsletters that inform and engage members.

Own the community communications calendar, keeping messaging timely, consistent, and on-brand across email, eHub, and other member channels.

Write and distribute announcements for community events, champion initiatives, campaigns , and key organizational updates.

Track newsletter and communication performance (open rates, click-through, engagement) and adjust content and cadence to improve reach and impact.

Keep a consistent community voice and brand across all written and digital touchpoints.

Metrics & Reporting

Help define and track key performance indicators (KPIs) to measure the success of community integration across the talent journey, including eHub and communications performance.

Regularly report on community engagement, member satisfaction, and program impact to stakeholders.
