About Partake
Partake is building one of North America’s leading non-alcoholic beer brands by making great-tasting beer for people who want to fully enjoy the moment without compromise.
We are a small, ambitious team that values creativity, resourcefulness and people who are ready to make things happen.
About the Role
We are looking for a hands-on Social & Community Specialist to bring the Partake brand to life across social media, community conversations, creator relationships and affiliate partnerships.

You will help shape ideas, translate that direction into compelling social-first content and manage the day-to-day work that keeps our community active, responsive and growing.
You will be close to our audience—responding to comments and messages, identifying relevant cultural moments, creating content and supporting creators and affiliates. You will also bring community feedback and performance insights back to the team to help improve how Partake shows up.
Reporting to the Chief Marketing Officer, you will work closely with Marketing, eCommerce, Customer Experience and external partners.
