Creator Growth Marketer

What this is

Citizen is building an army of 1,000 active creators per month who film, share, and report in real time from their neighborhoods. This person owns that program end to end — recruiting, paying, managing, and growing a creator network that turns ordinary people into the eyes of their city. It's part talent scout, part community operator, part growth hacker. It runs every night.

What you'll do

Build and operate the creator recruitment pipeline from 50 to 1,000 active creators/month

Own creator incentives: payment structures, milestone rewards, exclusives, partnerships

Run the creator community daily — Slack or Discord, nightly engagement, content feedback, momentum

Source and close media and partnership deals that expand the creator pool (local news, influencers, neighborhood orgs)

Work with product to define the tooling creators need and surface friction points back into the roadmap

Define and track the metrics: creator activation rate, retention, content volume, incident creation lift

What we're looking for

4+ years running creator programs, influencer networks, or community growth at a consumer app or media company

Has personally built a community from scratch — not inherited one

Comfortable owning a program that runs nights and weekends; this isn't a 9-5

Strong taste in video content and an instinct for what goes viral

Experience with incentive design and creator economics

Bonus: background in hyperlocal media, public safety, or news

Why this role

Citizen protects millions of people every day. The creator army is how we scale that mission — more eyes, more footage, faster response, more lives protected. This person is building something that has never existed before at this company.

Salary Range

This role offers a base salary of $80,000 - $120,000 per year, plus equity.
