At Vital Farms, we’re proud of the diverse communities we serve and the stakeholders who help bring our purpose to life. We’re committed to fostering an inclusive and collaborative environment where every crew member feels valued. We see this as one of our greatest strengths - and your role is key to helping us build on it. Your Role: Reporting to the Community Manager Team Lead, you’ll be a voice of the Vital Farms brand, connecting with consumers across multiple touchpoints, including email, social media, phone and good old fashioned snail mail. In addition to answering questions like “What’s the best way to soft-scramble eggs?” and “How can I thank the farmer who made my breakfast possible?” you’ll also get to share witty quips, quotes, and egg-cellent puns with our community of Hen-thusiasts. (See what we did there?) And if gift giving is your love language, then this job might just be for you. You’ll have the opportunity to surprise our loyal consumers with cartons of eggs, signature swag, and so much more. Organized, self-motivated, and fast on your feet (and fingers), your passion for community building will help us build trust and create meaningful connections with our consumers. Additionally, here are some other exciting projects and priorities you can expect to champion: What You'll Do: Respond to inquiries across all communication channels, alongside community management team, while engaging our consumers in a captivating and authentic way.

Capture analytics, providing internal team with community insights through monthly reporting. Collaborate with our content team to identify common consumer inquiries that we can hatch into valuable, helpful, or intriguing new content. Help build a trusted brand by stewarding our community through many different types and tones of conversation. Advocate for Vital Farms with passion! Immersing yourself in our business and focus on sustainable agriculture and animal welfare practices will be critical to success in this role. What You Bring to the Table: Bachelor’s Degree in Marketing or Communications preferred. 1-2 years experience in customer service, community management or social media for a brand.

You believe in acting like an owner and making Vital Farms a place to be proud of. You hold yourself to the highest standards and you strive to improve yourself and others each and every day, even Saturdays. You can walk in someone else’s boots – You seek to understand other’s viewpoints and think that you get to better answers by sitting on the same side of the table. Honest conversations don’t ruffle your feathers and you don’t walk on eggshells. If you see something in the organization that can be improved, you’re not afraid to speak up and you expect your colleagues to do the same.
