The role will start with technical responsibilities, such as writing and implementing guidelines and metrics. Then, as the team continues to expand, the manager will lead a team of moderators.

The listing does not mention hard experience or education qualifications, but a knowledge of online legal issues, online moderation tools and customer support strategies are required.
