Job Description
Facilities/Office Coordinator
BUG-A-SALT, a growing start-up manufacturing a unique, patented insect eradication device seeks a full-time Facilities/Office Coordinator.
Do you have an excellent sense of humor? You will need one to work here! We have the silliest, most fun product (maybe in the world). Do you thrive on developing better systems and process for an organization? Do you enjoy working with your hands? Do you enjoy learning new things and problem solving? Do people compliment you as a “handy” person? If the answer is yes, then organizing our office plus two warehouses (at different locations) could be a great position for you.
This position will report into the Operations Manager + C-Suite (a husband & wife team), to help us create an organized, safe, and productive work environment for our growing team. The ideal candidate is an organized, detail-oriented individual, who can manage multiple projects at once in a fast-paced environment. In addition, the person in this role should feel comfortable and happy around frequent exposure to things such as maintenance crews, security systems, running errands, safety documentation, creation/updating process/onboarding documents, and auditing of process.
Successful candidates must be able to organize efficiently, communicate effectively (verbally and through email), and be willing to take direction from the C-suite team (as we all pitch in here to help run things smoothly). In addition, this role will also be Santa Monica office based, meaning you will be required to work on location 5 days per week Monday – Friday. Applicants must be able to lift 40-pound boxes and be comfortable in a dog-friendly office (we have 4-6 dogs around most days of the week). Pay for this position will be commensurate with experience. Our company is modeled to reward employees who prove themselves to be hard working and dedicated. After a trial period, team members qualify for health/dental insurance, paid vacation, and retirement plan/profit sharing benefits.
The ideal candidate is confident, discreet (when necessary), patient, maintains sound judgment, and reasoning abilities. You must be comfortable around blue collar & white collar professionals. The wide range of tasks and unpredictable nature of the work also requires a nimble professional with a can-do attitude.
Duties and Responsibilities:
Support and coordinate with maintenance and repair vendors.
Support a positive and safe work environment for our staff, including organizing team activities, while contributing to the training and onboarding of junior staff members/interns.
Help with office moves and propose creative ideas to improve office organization and logistics.
Ensure the team stays on top of general upkeep of the premises, including the kitchen and common areas (and pitch in to help out if things get messy).
Take refuse bins to alley for scheduled pickup.
Support in the execution of company’s wellness efforts (make sure healthy snacks are stocked and immunity boosting vitamins are available etc).
Coordinate with outsourced IT consulting firm, supporting the team to ensure we have proper equipment and access to supplies.
Maintain inventory of supplies and computer equipment for two offices + warehouse.
Perform minor maintenance tasks with basic tools such as a hammer, screwdriver, or plunger.
Serve as liaison to vendors such as janitorial services, ADT security, gardeners, water filtration etc.
Conduct maintenance and safety checks at our facilities (Gardena, Santa Monica, & Mid-City).
Ensure workstations are setup and proper equipment is provided for new hires.
Provide general support to visitors and the scheduling of company-wide meetings.
Collect mail/receive packages, and manage/purchase office supplies/equipment.
Assist in onboarding new employees and ensure handbook/process documents (such as opening and closing instructions for our three facilities) are accurate, updated, and focused on safety.
Carry out administrative duties such as filing, invoicing, copying, binding, scanning, etc. for executive team/C-Suite.
The ability to joke and laugh if/when things go sideways (as they will from time to time).
Need to be able to help walk one large dog on a regular basis.
Occasionally order lunch and pick it up for team meetings (typically a few times a month, not more).
And any other tasks or projects as may be required by Employer.
Help team with fly farm maintenance (flies are sterile but need to be hatched for video footage for marketing).
