Office Manager - Manufacturing Operations & Executive Support

Job Description

Job Description

At LiquidStack, we're redefining what's possible in the data center world. As a global leader in advanced liquid cooling solutions, we're powering the future of AI, edge computing, and high-performance systems. Our team is growing, and we're looking for skilled professionals who want to be part of something innovative and impactful.

Position Summary

We design and manufacture products in Carrollton, TX, with sales, engineering, and our main production floor under one roof, plus a second light manufacturing facility a few minutes away. Customers visit weekly, touring the plant, qualifying parts, and meeting our engineering team, and the person in this role makes sure those visits run smoothly from the lobby to the shop floor.

This hybrid role combines office management for two manufacturing sites with executive logistics support for the CEO and his leadership team. In a typical week, you'll coordinate 1–3 customer visits or plant tours, manage travel and lodging for leadership, partner with sales and engineering on visit logistics, and keep both facilities running smoothly. You'll be the friendly face guests meet on arrival and the steady hand keeping things on track behind the scenes.

This is hands-on coordination work, not strategic chief-of-staff partnership. The right person brings the practicality of a seasoned manufacturing Office Manager and the polish to host customers and support executives.

Who You Are

• Comfortable on a shop floor — around production employees, in PPE, and walking the plant with customers
• Naturally friendly — visitors, customers, and new hires feel welcomed from the moment they meet you
• Comfortable with changing priorities and busy weeks — you stay organized when the day doesn't go to plan
• Proactive by default — you spot what needs doing and handle it before anyone has to ask
• Discreet and professional with sensitive information and executive travel details
• Energized by a hands-on, fast-paced workplace where every day looks a little different

Executive & Leadership Support (Travel, Visits, Lodging)

• Travel and lodging coordination for the CEO and leadership team — including customer-facing trips, trade shows, and supplier visits
• Hotel blocks, ground transportation, and dinner reservations for visiting customers
• Expense report support and follow-up
• Calendar and meeting coordination for leadership when needed, especially around customer visit weeks and month-end
• Discreet handling of executive travel details and visitor information

Workplace & Facilities Operations (Two Sites)

• Daily readiness of office areas, conference rooms, breakrooms, and visitor spaces across both plants
• Walkthroughs to catch issues early and resolve them proactively

• Support for safety and visitor compliance protocols

• Facility billing, invoice reconciliation, and basic budget tracking

Internal Events & Training

• Coordination of onboarding, training sessions, leadership meetings, and company events

• Cross-functional partnership with HR, sales, engineering, and plant operations on shared events

How You'll Work

• Flexible — You shift priorities gracefully and treat the unexpected as part of the job
• Friendly — You build trust quickly with everyone from production employees to visiting executives
• Driven — You take ownership and move things forward without needing direction
• Resourceful — You figure things out, build the process, and improve it next time
