Managing Editor & Community Lead

At its core, this role is about creating and growing an exceptional daily email—one that excites locals, keeps them in the know, and makes Do615 an indispensable part of their daily routine. The newsletter is where our audience turns to discover the best events, concerts, and experiences in their city before anyone else. You'll take ownership of this daily touchpoint, crafting engaging, high‑impact content that keeps our community coming back.

Beyond the newsletter, you will be responsible for ensuring our website is the best possible representation of Nashville—keeping event listings fresh, curating must‑attend events, making sure our venue and artist pages stay up to date, and working with a network of contributors to enhance our content. You’ll also cultivate relationships with local venues, promoters, and brands—securing partnerships, ticket giveaways, and exclusive experiences for our audience.

Social media plays a role in amplifying our presence, but email is where we truly connect with our community.

Additionally, you’ll engage directly with users, answering questions and ensuring they have a seamless experience across our platforms.

This is a full‑time hybrid position based in Nashville, ideal for someone who is deeply connected to their local scene and obsessed with newsletters and audience engagement.
