Community & Content Manager

Kalkomey Enterprises is the trusted guide to outdoor success. Every year, millions of people rely on our platform to gain the knowledge and confidence needed to safely explore the outdoors.

Since 1995, Kalkomey has partnered with government agencies across North America to deliver the education that powers responsible outdoor recreation. Our courses and technology platforms support certification programs used by wildlife, parks, and boating agencies while helping outdoor enthusiasts develop the skills needed to safely enjoy activities like hunting, fishing, boating, and snowmobiling.

Today, Kalkomey offers more than 360 online learning experiences supported by integrated web and mobile applications. Together, these solutions help make outdoor recreation more accessible, responsible, and safe for generations to come.

We believe education builds confidence, and confidence opens the door to the outdoors.

The Community & Content Manager is the voice and face of the Kalkomey brand portfolio - including but not limited to Boat-ed.com, Hunter-ed.com, BoaterExam.com, and HuntWise - across social media, influencer and ambassador partnerships, online forums, content channels, and earned media. This role owns the relationships, content pipeline, and community presence that fuel brand reach across Kalkomey’s full portfolio of outdoor safety education brands.

This is a hybrid role blending social media operations, influencer relationship management, content strategy, community engagement, and PR/earned media support.
