Campus Operations Co-Lead

This is a linkpost from our most recent hiring post. See the original post with more information here.

Help us run Lighthaven! Lighthaven is our 30,000 sq. ft. campus near Downtown Berkeley. We host a huge variety of events, fellowships and conferences there, ranging from 600+ person festivals like LessOnline or Manifest, to multi-month fellowships like the MATS program or Inkhaven.

We are looking for additional people to run a lot of our operations here. This will include making sure events run smoothly for our clients, figuring out how and when to cut costs or spend more and working on finding or inventing new events.

The skills involved in this role really vary hugely from month to month, so the key requirements are being able to generally problem-solve and to learn new skills as they become necessary. Some things I have worked on with people on campus in the last few months:

• Figuring out pricing for conferences and fellowships that run here
• Taking over work from our cleaner and porterage staff for a few days to notice which parts of the job are unnecessarily hard, so we can work on making them easier
• Programming and deploying our room booking software for events
• Plunging a clogged toilet during an event
• Hiring architects to help us file a bunch of permits to the City of Berkeley
• Getting into a car and getting backup food from a nearby restaurant for a conference that didn't order enough food for their attendees

This role could really take a very wide range of levels of compensation and seniority, ranging from $100k/yr to $300k/yr.
