Alongside building new ventures, the Studio is activating Sanabil's early-stage community, a curated network of founders, operators, and partners across accelerators, studio ventures, and talent programs that fuels the ecosystem we invest in.\nBacked by Sanabil, the Studio combines deep capital, operating muscle, and a programmed founder community to deliver a faster, deeper, and more credible early-stage experience than anything else available in the Saudi market today.\nWe are looking for aCommunity Manager to own Sanabil's early-stage community end-to-end, building the membership, the rituals, the events, the offerings, and the performance system that turn it into the place every early-stage founder in Saudi wants to be part of.\nTHE ROLE What you'll own here.\nLead Community, Events, Performance, and Offerings as one integrated activation function across all Sanabil Hub programs.\n\nPlan and run a consistent event cadence across founder dinners, masterclasses, demo nights, AMAs, partner sessions, and signature flagships, spanning every program under the Hub.\n\nManage the full event lifecycle: brief, run-of-show, speakers, registrations, hosting, and follow-up.\n\nOwn the community scorecard: attendance, NPS, repeat-visit rate, new members, founder pipeline contribution, Hub-wide.\n\nMaintain a single source of truth for members, events, deals, and partner engagement across the Hub.\n\nActivate alumni and senior operators as a living layer of the community, not just attendees.\n\nPartner closely with accelerator, venture studio, and talent program teams as equal stakeholders, not reporting into any one of them, to keep the experience seamless and consistent across the Hub.\n\nBe on stage when needed: MC, moderate, open and close events.\n\nTHE PROFILE You're probably a fit if...\nYou have 4-7 years building communities, programs, or running operator-facing events, in venture, accelerator, startup, or premium hospitality contexts.\n\nYou have experience running a recurring event cadence at scale and can speak to the results behind it.\n\nYou have experience originating partnerships and negotiating commercial terms.\n\nYou make clear, structured decisions under pressure and hold yourself accountable to the KPIs you set.\n\nYou are highly organized, with a reliable system for managing your work.\n\nYou are comfortable working with data: pulling it, interpreting it, and presenting it clearly.\n\nYou are fluent in Arabic and English, and comfortable moving between a founder conversation, a partner negotiation, and a leadership update.\n\nYou are happy to work an event schedule, including evenings and the occasional weekend.\n\nBonus: an existing network in the Saudi or GCC founder ecosystem and prior experience working with or inside a VC platform team.\nTHE ENVIRONMENT What working here actually looks like.\nInitiative & Ownership: This is not a coordination role. You'll have real room to experiment, get creative, and build the community in ways nobody has prescribed for you, while raising awareness of Sanabil Hub's programs across the ecosystem.\nQuality Without Compromise: Our reputation is built one event at a time. You will have the mandate and support to hold the bar, even when it means saying no to a partner, a speaker, or a \"good enough\" run-of-show.\nEarly Stage, Real Scale: We are at the beginning of something with significant ambition. The community you build now will define how Sanabil Hub shows up to founders for the next decade.\nWHAT YOU GET FROM US\nAn accelerated curve: you'll learn more about how the Saudi early-stage ecosystem actually works here in 12 months than most roles offer in three years.\nMeaningful upside: long-term incentives tied to the value you help create across the ecosystem.\nMentorship that matters: direct access to Sanabil investors, studio founders, and operators who have built and scaled real ventures.\nPremium gear, day one: fully set up and ready before your first day","description_format":"text","description_chars":4077,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[{"language":"Arabic","level":"Advanced (C1)","optional":false},{"language":"English","level":"Advanced (C1)","optional":false}]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Angel Networks & Startup Accelerators"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-11T06:26:40Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":10,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.368,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":173,"expected_fill_days":67,"reasons":["conf:1","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-10-31T05:58:55Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/sanabil-community-manager","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/sanabil-community-manager.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-31T09:35:45Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":14521,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-01T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":686936},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=686936"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fsanabil-community-manager"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fsanabil-community-manager"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fsanabil-community-manager"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/sanabil-community-manager\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fsanabil-community-manager"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":717363}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"sanabil.studio","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":717363},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
