Work that supports African creators
Our team helps makers, designers and builders find useful opportunities, not just nice sounding conversations. In Braamfontein and across our chapter network, the work can include creator meetups, showcase planning, mentor matching, portfolio feedback and online sessions for people joining from Cape Town, Durban, Pretoria, Nairobi and beyond.
We look for people who understand that community work is hands-on. That means showing up on time, keeping details in order, and treating every creator with respect whether they are starting out or already shipping work into the market.
- Community engagement and member support
- Events, showcases and venue coordination
- Digital content and profile writing
- Partnership outreach and liaison work
- Photography, styling and presentation support
Roles we commonly hire for
We do not keep rigid job moulds because our programmes shift with the needs of the community. Depending on what is happening, we may bring in people with experience in event production, creator services, programme administration, social media, sponsorship support, workshop facilitation or production logistics. Some roles are office based in Johannesburg, others are hybrid or fully online.
If you are the sort of person who can juggle a timeline, a guest list and a last minute room change without losing your head, you will fit in well. Strong writing, clear communication and good judgement matter. So does the ability to work with people from different backgrounds and countries.
- Programme support and administration
- Showcase production and floor coordination
- Mentorship administration and scheduling
- Digital community moderation
- Creator content and profile support
What matters to us on the team
We value people who are organised, calm under pressure and willing to take responsibility. Our work touches public events, online sessions and partner relationships, so reliability counts. You should be comfortable working in a busy environment, sometimes with tight turnarounds and the occasional load shedding interruption that needs a quick plan B.
Because we work with creators across South Africa and the continent, cultural awareness matters too. We want team members who listen properly, communicate clearly and understand that different cities have different working rhythms and costs. A good attitude goes a long way, but it must be matched by actual follow through.
- Clear written and spoken communication
- Strong planning and admin habits
- Respect for deadlines and detail
- Comfort working across time zones
- Interest in African creative work

Where you might work from
Our base is in Braamfontein, Johannesburg, with chapter activity in Rosebank, Pretoria, Durban, Cape Town, Newtown, Soweto and Nairobi. Depending on the role, you may help at live events, work from a shared programme space, or support sessions online. We need people who can move between these settings without losing track of the details.
Some weeks are heavy on setup and guest coordination. Other weeks are mostly planning, calls and follow up. That mix suits people who like variety and can keep steady standards even when the schedule changes at short notice.

- Online mentorship and collaboration calls
- Chapter activities across major cities

Grow with a practical community
We are interested in people who want to build something useful with us over time.

The work is real and the standards are steady.
If you want a place where people care about doing good work and backing one another properly, send through your CV and tell us why you would be a strong fit. We are always open to hearing from people who bring skill, care and consistency to the table.
