This is a full-time, exempt position.

  • Support cross-functional initiatives, special projects, and other organizational priorities as assigned.
  • Help foster a welcoming, productive, and well-organized work environment for staff and visitors, including ensuring the office remains functional and presentable.
  • In partnership with the Senior Operations Associate, support day-to-day office operations, including reception coverage, visitor management, incoming inquiries and mail, office supplies, catering, and meeting set-up.
  • Coordinate office repairs and maintenance with building management and third-party vendors.
  • Partner with the Chief of Staff, Senior Operations Associate, and Information Technology to maintain a consistent and productive in-office technology experience, including troubleshooting equipment and escalating issues as needed.
  • Manage designated operational processes and systems, including monthly safety inspections, Google Drive and Asana administration, employee onboarding support, and documentation of office procedures.
  • Support the Center's organizational culture and staff engagement initiatives, including coordinating logistics for staff meetings, outings, lunch and learns, new hire check-ins, and other in-person and virtual gatherings.
  • Assist with the implementation of office safety procedures and serve as a member of the Safety Committee.
  • Identify opportunities to improve day-to-day administrative and operational processes and work collaboratively with colleagues to implement solutions.
  • Demonstrate Ownership by showing initiative, active problem solving, being solution-oriented, acting conscientiously, and putting team results above individual accomplishments
  • Demonstrate Growth Mindset through resilience, humility, engaging in expansive thinking, and showing curiosity and openness to learning
  • Work collaboratively by demonstrating the ability to work in teams, exhibiting emotional intelligence, actively seeking input and consensus building, and having positive energy
