    Job Description

    Role Overview

    We are seeking a high-energy, proactive, and organized Office Coordinator to be the face and "engine" of our new Austin office. This is a unique role: for the first six months, you will be a key player in our office launch—setting up vendor accounts, drafting operational SOPs, and ensuring the building is ready for ~300 employees. Once the office is live, you will be managing the front desk while keeping our office operations running smoothly.

    Key Responsibilities

    • Vendor Coordination: Act as the primary point of contact for contractors, movers, furniture installers, and utility providers.
    • Operations Setup: Sourcing and managing accounts for snacks/beverages, janitorial services, security, and office supplies.
    • Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs): Create the "Office Playbook", including guest check-in protocols, mail distribution, and emergency response plans.
    • Asset Management: Help track furniture and equipment deliveries.
    • Front Desk Leadership: Provide a "concierge-level" experience for 300 employees and guests.
    • Manage check-ins, badges, and the multi-line phone system.
    • The "Knowledge Hub": Act as the primary resource for all employee questions regarding the building and amenities. Maintaining relevant documentation and website up to date.
    • Facility Oversight: Conduct weekly walkthroughs to ensure the space is tidy, functional, and safe. Working with the janitorial staff and vendors to ensure adequate kitchen restocking, cleanliness, maintenance and repairs as needed.
    • Event Support: Assist with internal culture events and logistics.

    Who You Are

    • A Self-Starter: You don't wait for a task list; you see a problem and fix it before anyone else notices.
    • Social & Personable: You genuinely enjoy interacting with people and can remain calm and friendly during a busy morning rush.
    • Highly Organized: You can juggle a vendor delivery, a broken HVAC call, and a guest check-in simultaneously.
    • Local Knowledge: Familiarity with the Austin area (especially the Parmer/Avery Ranch corridor) is a plus for vendor sourcing.

    Minimum Qualifications

    • 3+ years of experience in office coordination, facilities management, or high-end hospitality.
    • Proficiency in Google Workspace and/or Microsoft Office and visitor management software (e.g., Envoy).
    • Advanced digital literacy with a focus on administrative technology (e.g. develop SOPs, update website content)
    • Ability to lift up to 30 lbs (for package handling) and remain mobile throughout the day.
    • Strong written communication skills for drafting office-wide announcements.
    • Highly proficient in time management and prioritizing.
    • Proficient in high-stakes front-office operations.
