Community Lead - London

Hey 👋, we’re Haz and Wyatt, the founders of Pally.

Pally is a personal assistant that lives in your text messages. You text it like a friend. It replies to the messages you’ve been avoiding, books the dinner, chases the invoice, and handles the hundred small things that pile up in a week.

We’re YC S25, based in San Francisco, and growing fast. London is our first city outside the US. We want it to become the city where everyone has a Pally.

The role

You’ll be our first and only person in London. No office, no manager looking over your shoulder, no playbook. You get a budget, a Slack channel with us, and the whole city. Your job is to make London love Pally. In practice that means:

• An event every week. Dinners, run clubs, founder breakfasts, pub quizzes, whatever gets the right people in a room with Pally on their phones.
• One big Pally party every month. Hundreds of people, a venue people talk about, a night people post about.
• Sponsors. You’ll pitch venues, brands, and partners to fund and co-host what you run. You own the relationship end to end.
• Logistics. Venues, catering, guest lists, door, AV, budget. You’ve done this before and you enjoy it.
• Being the face of Pally in London. Founders, operators, creators, and the people who host the good stuff in this city should know you by name.
• Feeding it back. You’ll hear what people love and what annoys them. You tell us directly and we ship the fix.

We’ll measure you on one thing: how many Londoners are using Pally every week, and how much they love it.

Profile

You’ve organised events people still talk about. Maybe a society at uni, a supper club, a community for your industry, a festival stage, a company’s offsites. The scale matters less than the fact you did it yourself and people came back.

You’re comfortable walking into a room where you know nobody and leaving with ten new friends. You can email a brand’s marketing lead on Monday and have a signed sponsorship by Friday.

You’re self-sufficient. Nobody will tell you what to do each day. You’ll decide, do it, and report back with numbers.

You use Pally every day and have opinions about it.

We don’t care about your CV. We care that you’ve built something from nothing and kept it going.

As for values: you believe relationships are everything. You care about the people you work with. You give more than you take. You take artistic pride in everything you do. You know that ‘good enough’ is not good enough.

Practical stuff

Salary £35-50k + equity.

Full-time, based in London, starting ASAP. Evenings and weekends are when the events happen, so your week will look different from a normal job. You set your own schedule around them.

You’ll fly to San Francisco to spend time with the team early on, and we’ll be in London often.

We work exceptionally hard. If work isn’t your primary focus, this isn’t for you.

But relationships are everything applies to you too. You will be there for your family and friends when they need you. We don’t care when you work hard, only that you do.

If this sounds like you, apply today. Send us the best event you’ve ever run and what you’d do for Pally’s first month in London.

Thanks for reading,

Haz + Wyatt
