We are looking for a contract Event + Venue Manager to help us as we activate and transform some of San Francisco’s most amazing buildings into a premier event space portfolio.

Who We Are 

We are Non Plus Ultra- we activate historic, one-of-a-kind properties, and unique civic-owned spaces by partnering with global brands, artists, and community leaders to create unparalleled experiences. Iconic, timeless, unique. We work with our partners to create incredible performances, elevated experiences, large-scale conferences, community activations, and mind-blowing events.

Who You Are

You’re a self-starter with a commitment to customer success. You are also a creative thinker, fantastic communicator, great listener, team player, and a tireless client advocate. You set high goals (because those are the most fun to crush). You speak our language (which, importantly, does not have a word for ‘No’ but does have a seemingly infinite number of ways to say ‘Yes’). You have no time to waste complaining about what is broken because you’re busy fixing it.

What you will be doing General
