[Hiring] Communications & Growth Manager @Malengo

Role Description

We're looking for someone who is great with words, comfortable with technology and AI tools, and driven by the challenge of getting the right people to notice us, whether that's employers or investors. Someone who can think across channels, write well, and make things happen without needing a lot of hand-holding.

Qualifications

• Native in German and at least B2 English, with strong writing skills, particularly in German
• Self-starting and creative: you bring ideas nobody asked for and can make the case for why they'll work
• Experience with B2B content marketing, ideally targeting employer or HR audiences
• Solid grasp of SEO and AISO; curiosity about AI search and where it's heading
• Autonomous and resourceful: you figure things out, ship, and iterate without waiting for a detailed brief
• Motivated by early-stage conditions: limited budget, high ambition, real ownership

Requirements

• Optimise our website:
• Improve our existing website (content, SEO, and user experience) so it works for our target audiences of employers and investors.
• German employer landing page:
• Write and shape a compelling German-language page for employers by going beyond translation to craft messaging that actually resonates.
• Website translation:
• Translate the website into German.
• Paid ads, SEO & AI search optimization (AISO):
• Test and learn across paid and organic channels, including AI-driven search.
• Bonus if you take this further:
• Blog content: Write blog posts or come with your own ideas, supporting our team or leading independently, creating content people actually want to read and share.
• LinkedIn employer campaign: Design and run a LinkedIn campaign targeting employers with angles that stand out rather than blend into the feed.
• Investor-focused writing: Help craft investor updates and narratives that go beyond dry reporting to clear, compelling, and confidence-building.

Benefits

• 100% remote work — from anywhere in Germany
• Flexible working hours
• A highly motivated, international team across Germany, Uganda, Kenya, Rwanda, and the USA
• Real ownership and the chance to actively shape a young non-profit organisation
• Meaningful work with direct impact on the lives of young people and their families

Growing with us

This role starts at ~5 hours per week. If we find a strong fit and see results together, we'd love to expand it significantly. This is a real opportunity to shape the marketing function from the ground up.
