Coworking Community Specialist
ALX Community, Alexandria, VA, United States
Tired of working shifts and trying to manage your budget off of tips? We love restaurant, retail, and hospitality folks.
ALX Community seeks an energetic, hard-working, and sociable Community Specialist for one of our beautiful coworking locations in Old Town Alexandria. This position is the heartbeat of Alexandria—responsible for fostering a welcoming, focused work environment for members and guests, organizing and executing all types of meetings, and working for Old Town’s best-shared coworking community.
Does this sound like you? You also have an uncanny ability to multitask, yet still perform every assignment with immaculate precision. Nothing can get past you, and you’re sure to follow up on every task to make sure it’s completed right and on time. From introducing the space to new guests to overseeing the needs of over 600 unique members, the Community Specialist is a self-disciplined problem-solver eager to go the extra mile for members and guests.
From the warmth you exude as you build relationships with our members to the effectiveness you demonstrate when managing multiple activities at once, it all adds up to ensure you always embody the ALX culture of learning, growing, and giving...and have tons of fun in the process!
What will you be doing?
Blow the minds of every member and guest with your hospitality
Keep our beautiful community spotless
Create regular events to dazzle and engage members
Help us show off our space by providing tours
Conduct new member orientation
Impress our members with your amazing troubleshooting skills
Create an inclusive environment that fosters collaboration and creativity - both internally and externally
And there is other stuff that is less flashy but needed like inventorying, ordering and stocking supplies, answering phones, and mail/package management
Who are you?
It’s all about people! Being on the ALX Community team means always being attuned to people's needs and being customer-centric
Getting the job done is critical
You should be a practical, creative, fast-thinker who is constantly on their feet and aware that others are counting on you
You should be a results-driven individual who, with very thorough processes, is a great methodologist
Multi-tasking should be a breeze for you
Be familiar with the startup and small business ecosystem along with the daily happenings of the city
Fired up about ALX Community; you are ready to live, eat and breathe ALX, spreading the love to everyone you encounter
What’s your background?
Restaurant, Hospitality, or Retail background strongly desired
Experience in Sales
Great verbal and written communication skills
Technically and physically strong (able to pick up 20-30 pds)
Marketing savvy
We will provide you with these perks and more:
A dog-friendly, flexible working environment where regular silliness is celebrated
A place where you are appreciated, valued, and cared about daily
Opportunity to learn, grow, and build a great career
Chance to give back regularly to critical social causes and organizations
Flexible vacation policy
Rich medical, dental, and vision coverage
